Yummy yummy soymilk

Today on a very special episode of Japan cool....ok j/k, I just felt like sounding like an afterschool special for a few seconds. Our list is a hodge podge of words and food today.

So I was teaching my neighbor English on Tuesday and she said the word 'money game' turns out it means investing and playing the stock market. I just thought it was interesting take on the whole concept

Number 2 is this yummy drink

I love it, Mixed fruit flavored soy milk, for 90 yen(75cents). It is great, but now when Clark sees it go into the cart, he grabs it immediately. If I want any peace durring the check out process, I have to open it up and he drinks ALL of it. My dang tofu/soymilk/edamame lovin' kid. He ate like a cup of tofu by himself for lunch today!

The last thing is this. I was blessed enough to be able to do a guest post on CW's blog on co-sleeping. Now I know it is not for everyone, but here in Japan, it widely practiced. I also know futons on the floor aren't for everyone(plus they aren't those super thick 'futons' in the US) especially when you are 8-9 months pregnant, but they work well for us. On the nice side, I don't worry about Clark rolling off because he'll only 'fall' 2 inches or so. Anyway, I was looking through a catalogue today and began lusting after this. Only in Japan!

Yep, three, four or five person bed, sweeeeeeet!

See how much fun we have in ours!
