Have you seen this Totoro Cream Puff before?
Yesssssss. It’s #onlyinJapan.
Quite a few of my friends visited this little mysterious cafe so during my trip to Japan this early summer, i decided to drop by!
It’s getting late now (22:55. Yea i know. By my boring mom standard, it is late.) so it’s gonna be a captioned quick post! There’s a video at the end of the post, though, so hope it illustrates better! 🙂
Junya woke up in a super good mood that day <3
Look what just came in for me, again!
The first time i came across Yadah’s product is when they launched their Yadah lip tint (and now they just launched Lovely Lip Tint Stick, check it out here). I was attracted to their super cute packaging and even more so with their all natural formulations.

Here’s what happened in the past month!
1. A Boy
I know i have said it many times before, and i’m likely to say it many more times in the near future, but last month, my baby has grown into a boy.
Even though he looks as baby as he always used to be.
So so so!! It is Junya’s Disneyland debut! Unless you count the time he visited Disneysea when he was still in my tummy. Then this is second time hahaha.
A day before Junya’s birthday, i decided to join Number76 Malaysian team’s Tokyo Disney visit! The team was split into the Disneyland group and Disneysea group. I really wanted to get a Duffy for JunJun so i followed Amy who was the Disneysea team leader haha.
Disney #ootd
Bought a steering wheel for Junya’s stroller to get him occupied in case he wonders why he can’t sit on those Disney rides. At least he has his own ride lol.
This was on 11 June, Junya’s first birthday!
We didn’t have any birthday celebration for him but we did plan to go somewhere nice where Junya gets to enjoy too, just the 3 of us.
Mama & bb coordinate ❤︎
JunJun is wearing his 1-year-old baby Montsuki, a formal kimono for this special occasion!
First we went to 76CAFE Omotesando for breakfast and to meet all the Number76 from Malaysia for their company trip to Japan!!
My lunch: Chicken Over Rice, my current obsession in 76CAFE. The first time i tried it was when QiuQiu ordered it last December and was instantly smitten. ❤︎
Since i am mostly domesticated nowadays, i need to be an expert in many household related knowledge, such as mold prevention, durability of non-stick pans, the challenge of sustainable gardening, and … if a vacuum cleaner really sucks.
The latest addition in the house: Toshiba Torneo with a Dual Tornado System.
Yes, many of you are now aware that cyclone type vacuum cleaners are one of the most powerful. While some of you may 忍痛 and invest a few thousand Ringgit in a cyclone vacuum machine, this Toshiba Torneo is maybe 1/3 or even 1/4 the price.
I love June and July because many of my favorite people’s birthdays are on these two months!
There’s JunJun in June (yea that’s partly why i gave him the name lol) and the danna in July. This year the only present i had for him is his lunchbox.
Getting more and more cheapskate every year lolol.
But this is the most serious kyaraben i’ve made ok!! Got sketch wan! Hahaha.
The food picks are from Tokyo DisneySea!
Anyway, i did have a small party for the danna and Junya, since You & Co, a wedding/party planner was sooo nice to help me arrange it!
Today i want to introduce a new cosmetic/skin care brand that i come to love very much recently.
But before that i want to share some stories!
So during my family trip in Japan, Tokyo Luxey insisted i meet up with this brand called maNara because they think i will like the products. So i did, and we set a meet up at Loft, Yurakucho near Ginza, because maNara is sold at the Loft.
I thought i was just meeting the marketing people or the brand representative, but…
The founder and president of maNara, Iwasaki Yumiko san herself took some time off her super busy schedule just to meet this foreign blogger in Japan!! T___T
Many of us love Japanese food.
If you are a little familiar with Japanese culture, you may have noticed that Japanese people say “Itadakimasu” before they start eating at the table.
You put both your hands together and with a slight bow, you say Itadakimasu, and then pick up the chopsticks and start eating. We practice this at our home every day as the danna is really strict with table manners. Junya will have to do it too lol.
Anyway, people usually translate Itadakimasu as “Bon Appetit” or “Let’s eat” (Or in Hokkien “lai lai lai jiak jiak jiak!!!” lolol), which is correct, but doesn’t reflect its true meaning.
So so so!! It’s Tokyo time!!! This was our trip to Japan in May/June 2015. Junya was about to turn 1 so it was his last few weeks as a baby hehe. Here are some of the restaurants we have been!
1. Malaychan
Actually we didn’t try this, but i thought it would be useful for Malaysian readers especially Muslims travelers!
It’s a Halal Malaysian restaurant at Ikebukuro! It’s supposed to be a pun for “Belacan” i think lol.
If ever you miss home and some comfort food (almost never happen for me XD), do drop by Malaychan and let me know if it is good!
