Wednesday February 11th was a national holiday (National Foundation Day), and so we took a day trip with some friends up to northern Hyogo to go skiing at Sky Valley. Above is my convenience store breakfast, crepe bomb. Not only was it amusing, but sugary sweet and tasty as well.

Hollie and I sport our matching ski wear. That we match was pointed out to us about 2 minutes after I was joking about some other women who walked by wearing matching ski wear. Oops. I think it's cute anyway.
