I saw the Gucci bags for the 2007 Holiday Campaign to Benefit UNICEF in the show-windows at Gucci Ginza.
While Salon Stone participates a benefit party or Madonna is planning for a charity live to appeal for saving Malawi next year, it is their third year, Gucci seems to be active with social contribution activities among those luxury brands.
Don’t you agree that it’s cool to be able to contribute the benefits by giving a bag for Christmas?
I just got a new velour bag from Beams. It has a nice and soft touch.

I went to KIDDY LAND and checked out Gachapon machines. There’s many Gachapon machines on each floor. I throw 100yen coin into one of these, to try my luck.

I’m a Jagabeelover, simple salt taste potato snack:9
Maybe you know Japanese companies loves to make characters for their merchandise. They are trying to get costomers feeling friendly or kawaii. Jagabee also have a character. it is a fairy of potatoes. but it has no name!
One day I realised the fairy draw on the cup are sometime different, odds low.
regular one is it bowing to us. Others are looks like enjoy playing in lucky charms!!
I found rainbow, four leaved clover,and sleeping on the moon (sorry, I ate up and throw away the moon cup!!!) The fairy always says “Happee”, yes Jagabee always make me happy yummy.

This chara-ben’s motif is “NARUTO“!!
Right now, the “chara-ben” is hugely booming among kids!
“Chara-ben” is a kid’s “bento” lunch box with rice, sausages or cheese making shapes of those popular characters. “Chara-ben”’s pronunciation is [kara-ben] .
You can even buy the recipes or tools specifically designed for making “chara-ben”.
Snoopy Manju contain custard in it. You can get it only at Universal Studios Japan. It’too cute to eat,but it was tasty.
Manjū (饅頭, Manjū?) is a popular traditional Japanese confection.
Crumbled and seasoned meat/egg are generally called “soboro”（そぼろ） in Japanese. Soboro are often used as toppings on steamed rice.
Different colored soboro are presented on top of the rice in a lunch box. Very tasty.
I went to Universal Studios Japan which is one of three Universal Studios theme parks, this one in Osaka, Japan.
I got some souvenirs at the Universal Studios. They are all sweets. These packages are sooo fun.
