 Hallo! The rainy season finished and weather is nice every day. I am excited because it is vacation in a week.

Thursday, When I studied for next week's tests, My mother bought me a sweets that I have never seen the shape before. There were small hole on the surface. And  Two pieces of pie crust were sandwiched cream and blueberries. It were very light because the bittersweet pie crust and refreshing cream were not so sweet. So I felt I could eat as many as I wanted. I want to eat it again!!

If you are curious, Please try to go to a bakery called "Le, Lapin"!!

 Hallo, How are you? I’m busy to do Various class assignments and part-time jobs.

And it  became to be easy for us to find books that we want to read. I became to like the calm atmosphere there. So l want to go there regularly .

After then, I went to a cafe. It’s called 59FU. I ate anko and butter waffle and drank cocoa. Waffle is sweet, but it was very light. Anko and butter is my favorite combination. So I thought that I can eat it as many as l like. If you go to Yahiko, please try to go!!

This week, I went to Kanbara festival with my friends. Kanbara festival is one of the three major festivals in Niigata.And stalls line up a road for 1km. So it is so big and there are many kind of stalls. The most favorite food that I bought is Fried bread. I have never seen it in festival before I went to Kanbara festival. It was freshly fried and outside was sakusaku and inside was mochimochi. It’s very delicious so l asked this stalls clerk where we are able to buy it . But he told me that it is not sold normal day. I was shocked. But if l find this shop in other festivals, I will buy it!!
