It was raining Sunday morning which bummed me out because Harajuku was one of our site destinations for the day since the streets become a catwalk for street fashion. We thought nothing could hold us back, not even a little rain, but it was raining pretty hard and we were soaked, specifically my shoes. We […]

Japan Day 4: Asakusa and a Summer Festival
For Day 4, Nicole and I visited Sensoji Temple in Asakusa. Sensoji Temple is one of the more famous temples in Japan and definitely one of the biggest tourist attractions in Tokyo. It is easy to find souvenirs and experience parts of traditional Japan in the middle of a modern city. We visited most of […]

Japan Day 3: Tokyo Disneyland
Before we left for Japan, Nicole and I agreed that we needed to visit Tokyo Disneyland. We grew up watching all of the Disney movies (as most kids born in the 90`s did) and wanted to see how this compared to the Disneyland in Anaheim since we frequented it all throughout our childhood. So we […]

Japan Day 2: Shibuya, Ginza and Akihabara
Nicole and I braved the subway systems and made our way to Shibuya Wednesday morning (Day 2) in Japan. The stairs leading out to the streets did not exit near the famous intersection, but we spotted a shrine nearby and decided to visit it: We walked over to the well-known Shibuya intersection and took a […]

Japan Day 1: Korakuen, La Qua and Tokyo Dome City
After a 12 hour flight from LAX to Narita, we arrived to Japan at 9:00 pm and took a taxi to our hotel. Taking a taxi was expensive since our hotel was located pretty far from the airport, but it was worth it since neither my sister, Nicole, nor I wanted to decode the Tokyo’s […]

Life’s a Beach…Cake
Last week, my coworkers and I held a celebration dinner at a local pizza restaurant to celebrate a coworker’s upcoming wedding. I was commissioned to make the cake and, because it was a pretty casual event, I wasn’t restricted in making a traditional wedding cake. This is the first cake I’ve made that wasn’t for a […]
