A Good Day

This is going to sound really pathetic, and scarily like a kind of person that I hate, but I have a favorite pastry. It's a wierd green rockmelon based cake with REAL orange rockmelon in the centre (I'm talking the fruit people... IN A CAKE! INSANE I TELL YOU!) Whenever I buy breakfast at the Japanese-trying-to-be-French bakery at my station I ALWAYS buy this bun.

Anyway, this morning they were sold out so I bought my second fave (I sound really pathetic now). As I was paying, the shy clerk appologised in Japanese for not having any of the "melon bun" today and giggled to herself. That was great so I laughed too. I guess I'm a regular but didn't really appreciate it until someone gave me a genuine welcome conversation instead of the cliched "GOOD MORNING!" yell that most people get.

It's a shame that I'm moving into Tokyo from the first of next month (yeah, big news, right?) I'm going to miss this little Japanese-trying-to-be-French bakery... and their green rockmelons buns.
