@ Cafe

Work @ Cafe

I got a new cafe near my house.  There was a restraunt before at same location but the cafe has been open since this April 11th.  I wanted to do some my works at quiet cafe but unfortunetely it was quite noisy.  I was suprised that so many people were there and especially older women.  They looked 60s-70s.  They were probably housewives near here.  They enjoyed talking with friends. It looked fun!!  I'll come back here in some other time in different time zone.  However coffee was very fresh and tast quite good!!  They have luch dishes and light meals.  I'm gonna try something!

EPSON Colorio

EPSON Colorio Printer EP-804A White

Finally my 2 printers were broken.  I had Epson and HP printers at my home and office but I couldn't get to fix them so I just bought a new one which is an all in one printer.  It's a printer, scanner and copy even has an own email address and print our if you send a photo from your cellphone.  It's quite good one.
But I hardly accept that there is only choice to buy new one.  A staff said "It's been stopping to produce of some manugacutrs." I can't accept that. The maker has been stopped making a part of old printer so they can't fix it again and fixing will be more expenseive than buying.  I strongly hope that the maker should have own pride to take care of their products till user dicide to stop using.  Consumer has no choice if the maker stop making the parts.  It is no ecology at all.

COSTCO

Me and my husband haven't been shopping together quite while but we went to COSTCO a week ago.  I wanted to buy a Big bag of onions and other groceries so I asked him to go shopping together.  It was the first time to go there together because of it's a new store in Zama, Kanagawa since December of 2011.

Cheese section of COSTCO

In 2011, at the last Spring, one of it located a suburb of Tokyo, the nearest one to us, it had a big damage when a mega quake attacked on 3.11th.
Their customers were killed by the disaster and has been closing since.  I heard that the store has been fixed and restarted recently but at that moment we lost COSTCO till they opened a new one.  We were waiting for the new store 9 months and got new store quite close to us than before.
My husband loves their grilled chicken so we bought it, bagles, eggs and snacks.  I wanted buy a cheese but I didn't because we entered the store nearly their closing time so we havn't enough time to think to choose.  However after shopping we had a piece of pizza and hotdogs at foodcourt.  He couldn't wait to have the chicken and finished 2 legs.
We have nice and cheap local grocery stores in our area so we don't need to go COSTCO offten but we enjoy shopping at there and even after shopping!

Spring has come

I don't feel to enjoy Sakura watching.  We call it "Ohanami" in Japanese because of my father death in this year.  But my dad liked Sakura tree which is a cherry blossom.  So I go out and took some pictures today.  It was very slow to become full bloom in this Spring but this place is near my home and there is a lovely Sakura tunnel now. 

Why Japanese really like Sakura?  I don't know the reason even myself I don't get the answer.  Anyway my dad enjoys this beautiful trees, doing "Ohanami" with his Taiwanese friend together in the heaven I believe.
