---First: Probably not natural hair colors...on old ladies?!---
Old Japanese ladies (50+?) dye their hair the most ridiculous colors. This one was in a convenience store...had to sneak the photo.
Oh, in the foreground is white coffee - what I was pretending to take a pic of. Quite delicious. Also popular are BRIGHT purple, lavender, and maroon!! I will try to get more photos...these old ladies usually pop up at random and are gone by the time I get out the camera.
---Second, MUSHROOMS! (This one's for you, Jasper!) --------
I have no idea what these are. Grocery stores carry at least 7 distinct varieties of mushroom. You're not really supposed to take pictures in stores for some reason, so these were ninja shots. I tried the white, phallic one (#1) in a stirfry and it was quite delicious.

---Finally: Hooters! ---------
The reason you're still reading this blog...amirite?
Went to the Asakasa Hooters (Tokyo) for a double birthday. The girls do a silly dance, jump around, and deliver you cake. Coincidentally, every table in the house had at least one birthday. ;)
Me and the Japanese hooters.
there must be something fun about being old and doing crazy shit. maybe when i get older i'll be the crazy old lady doing crazy things. take more ninja shots of these women and their hair coloured by the rainbow please. i'd like to see more. for research. ^^
ReplyDeletemushrooms galore. oo! i know #2 is enokitake. the sister and i recent had some in our sukiyaki mix. it was pretty delish. but i don't think my sis really cared for its texture. i think #3 is shiitake that chefs likes to use in those cooking competition shows. #1 says it's enringi in katakana on the label. i don't think i've had that one before. #4 is maitake. haven't had that one before either. i've always wondered why we're not suppose to take pics inside stores. and it seemed more so the case in tokyo. **shrug**
looks like it was a great time at hooters! everyday was must be a birthday there. haha. and i don't know about those idaho refugees. didn't know there was such turmoil in that state. i'm glad they're finding working programming fried for hooters though. what a heartwarming story!
YES! I will do my best to get more of those old lady ninja shots. I sense a nice long afternoon of people watching in my near future...and I think I will have to get some of those weird mushrooms and make a stew or something...or maybe all of them in a mushroom stew...mmm...stew...
