jelly no ie is a popular jelly shop in Iwaki city (Fukushima prefecture). Many of colorful jellies are so beautiful that I hesitate to eat. They have online-shop. so, I can order them from Tokyo.
When I have party, I always order.
they made from purple colored sweet potatoes.
steamed then dry, no artificial things or sugar in this.
healthy & yummy sweets, but looks not so good ;)

Camellia oil is traditional beauty oil for hair/skin made from camellia seeds.
our granma age, girls proud of shining black hair with the oil… for
some time, this was popular in elder people only.
Nowadays, because people consider about what is good for body and
health, camellia oil is in the limelight again!
I love using it plus some essential oils :)
Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner attended the Tokyo premiere of “Twilight” in Tokyo at Ebisu Garden Palace on February 27th. The film won’t start until April 4th in Japan, which I really can’t believe.
It was the coldest day of this winter; under sleety raining and windy conditions, Twilighters were waiting to see them for hours.
They showed up from 3 Volvo XC90s (Rob,Kristen and Taylor in each) drove up to the red carpet with the music “Supermassive Black Hole” by Muse!!!
I could get Rob’s autograph on the Twilight book in Japanese, BUT it was half disappeared, because of the rain which I was really really disappointed…
Sorry, I couldn’t take good photos, but here are some I posted.
Sakuramochi is a variety of wagashi, or Japanese confectionery consisting of a sweet pink mochi (rice cake) and red bean paste, covered with a leaf of sakura (cherry blossom).
You can eat a sweet pink mochi with pickled sakura leaves. It tasts awesome!!
Sakura-mochi is eaten on March 3rd, Girl’s Day. The Japanese Doll’s Festival or Girl’s day (Hina-matsuri), is held on March 3, the third day of the third month. This is a day to pray for young girl’s growth and happiness.
