Long Day Shopping (2004-11-16)
Last week KL and I went Christmas shopping for my American parents. It is hard to shop for someone who seemingly has everything. I don't know if they like the presents we bought them that day, but I certainly had a fun day out all day EATING. The first thing we did before we went to any stores was to eat lunch. We went back to that Chinese restaurant in Kichijoji (
) and the food was
yummy. As soon as we finished lunch, KL suggested cake which I
couldn't handle at that moment because I was so full. We shopped
for a little while and wanted afternoon tea. We went to Olive
House in Department Store where I had Japanese dessert and KL had crepe
with baked apple. After the tea set, we hopped on a train to Shinjuku's (
) Tokyu Hands
next to Takashimaya (
) Department Store to continue with our
shopping. I found some gorgeous daffodil bulbs there and we
bought two packets with three bulbs each. Together with some
tulips and freesia I planted earlier, we should have a colorful spring
garden next year.
After we finally bought all the presents, it's time for yet another
meal! KL took me to the restaurant where he had dinner with a
group of friends just recently. The food was beautifully
presented and delicious. I'll talk more on that resaurant later
when I have the pictures ready.
Christmas shopping may make KL's wallet thinner but it makes ME fatter!
