Spreading quilty joy one stitch at a time!

Tasty Tuesday: Treats from Japan

October 6, 2015 by Shannon Leave a Comment

Yesterday was a really hectic day with lots of unanticipated
interruptions.  One being the delivery of
this box from Japan. 
Back in August, we hosted a BBQ for a few of my spouse’s
colleagues.  And I completely bonded with
one gentleman visiting from France over our mutual love for Japan.  

It is over 14 years since I last lived there,
but I still have very fond memories of my time in Japan, the people I met, the
cities I visited and the amazing food I ate. 
God I love their food!  
So you can
imagine how touched I was that out of the blue I received a parcel from Osaka
filled with sweat treats. 
I’m not usually one who loves surprises, but I will take a surprise
box of oishii sweets from Japan any
time!!  What an awesome treat!
Thank you Fernando for the truly thoughtful gift!  I will savour every bite 😉
