color of lotus leaf? definitely not a dull olive … refreshing apple green (on my mac) about captures it.
giganto congrats on the upcoming nuptials!

おめでとうございます！ I'll give you the same advice my father gave me. He said, "There's two ways to handle a wife:

and no one knows either of 'em."

Joanna,
Thank you for your thoughtful comments!
I do feel very lucky to be with Mari. Despite being from different countries, speaking different languages, and sharing other inevitable conflicts, we’ve found something simple and deep, been able to grow it, guide it along, make it work. Sometimes it’s as if we can already remember being old together…
Thanks also for the congratulations — and how nice of you to think of our registry. We haven’t set anything up yet, but will probably register in the U.S. next spring. Sharing your sentiments is gift enough, but I’ll post registry information here when I have it.
Cheers…

Chika-san, Mari translated for me.
ありがとう！ And thanks for helping us plan the party!
Yeah, something about our photo is a little scary. We look a little dead. But charming, too, ne?

Hi SOS
I discovered your weblog only recently and have really fallen for it quickly, partly because of the fantastic pictures, partly of the observation about food nature, and partly because of your admiration and care of Mari shows through your writing and photos. When a guy is in awe and care of a gal, it shows. You are always commenting on what she likes and doesn’t like, what she does, and how she spends her time. She seems like a wonderful woman, and you, a great guy who cherish her. Congratulations on your engagement, and have a wonderful wedding!!! Are you registered anywhere on the internet?
