Shiroi Koibito Park

In a last minute effort to get some presents for folks back in Singapore, I asked my Japanese Teacher colleagues what would be great to buy from Hokkaido.
I got many recommendations. But I feel the most convenient one to get would be chocolates!
Ishiya chocolates are somewhat famous in Hokkaido!
I had to meet my supervisor for an interview at the education center. Fortunately the chocolate factory is like 2 blocks away from there! So before heading for the interview, I dropped by and bought lots of chocolates!

Eid-il Adha celebration at my apartment

So I invited some friends over to my place. Its a potluck thing, so everybody got to bring their own cooking or buy some treats to share with everyone present. It was great!
I wanted to get everyone over to celebrate Hari Raya Haji (as what we’d call it in Singapore) and also just to hang out at my place before I leave for Singapore tomorrow!
I’ll be in Singapore for 3 weeks. Hoping to get away from the bitter cold!
As always here are some pictures!

I loved the cheese bread pudding and chocolate cake! All these are made by Roslynn and Nina respectively.

Mr Mini SnowMan

Well, it snowed again today. I sure don’t feel like going outside right now.
Anyway, I thought I’d make a little snowman on my balcony.
