Bless the waitresses at Barbacoa, who tried to make CEDRIC's (not Sandry) birthday extra-special with a personalized dessert.
So close!

macha bliss
Tsujiri in Caretta Shiodome.
Macha bliss in ice cream sundae form.
I met up with Ai and Hiroko after work for girl talk at the uber-popular green tea sweets shop in Shiodome. It was a Thursday evening and we had to wait an hour. You don't want to go there on weekends.
I had the basic: macha kanten, macha ice and vanilla ice cream, macha whipped cream, and a side of tokoroten with kuromitsu.

Tokyo bay at night
gotta agree with miss Ai's testimonial about Shiodome and Caretta. It's heavenly.
After macha sundaes at Tsujiri, as we always do when in Caretta, we stopped by the 46th floor to take in the night bay views.

gardenia
Gardenias always remind me of San Francisco, where they sell individual blooms on little plastic disc-shaped holders on the streets. You can put them into a glass of water and they'll last for a day or so. Even after they've lost the beautiful white color and shape, the fragrance lingers. On humid summer nights, seems like one single gardenia bush can infuse an entire block with the smell.
