Local Today, Kyoto Tomorrow

My friend and I stayed local today, exploring yukatas in the thrift store and strange candies in the mall.  Curiosity only takes me so far when it comes to squid candies and the like.  It's a personal hurdle that I'm hoping to overcome by the time I leave Japan; perhaps it will serve me well in other endeavors in life.  For now, mochi and chocolate.  And new cooking experiments–hopefully the first in a line of Japanese inspired culinary evenings.

Tomorrow, a trip to Kyoto.  It's hard to know how much to plan and how much to allow feet, eyes, and stomachs to be the guides of the moment.  So we'll see what there is to see, and taste what there is to taste.
