abao in tokyo
the best study with me creator. real (read: not AI) long-form videos for slice-of-life vibes in japan. personally like the lo-fi ones but piano, firewood, rain tracks also exist. i get so much done, relatively pain-free!
pet gear all terrain no zip stroller
i stalked fb marketplace for years! normally very expensive but it truly is the best stroller if your dog loves to be outside but can't walk long distances. the reason is THE WHEELS. they're huge and absorb shock from bumpy surfaces really well. i've looked and looked for cheaper strollers with big non-plastic wheels and they don't exist (yet).
tezumi komiya matcha
i'm kind of scared to post this because they already sell out often! but tezumi has fantastic matcha at a variety of price points. they work directly with small farms in japan. this one is great for heavy scoops in iced lattes.
savoring the last tomato harvest of the season
after a winter choosing seed varieties, spring babying seedlings, and summer tending to plants in the ground, the last harvest makes me feel viscerally the passage of the last 9 months. i love tomatoes!
