This weekend it got super cold. It was
-1 degrees Celsius when I went to my riding school lesson this past Saturday! It was
horrible. I woke up freezing and shut my bathroom door with the space
heater running inside for about ten minutes before I even attempted
to get dressed. Sometimes, I seriously long for central heating. I
shouldn't complain though because Minamiboso is a lot warmer than the
city I lived in last year. I'm seriously dreading the coming of
February and the frigid temperatures that it brings.
Despite it getting more and more
difficult to leave the kotatsu, I do have several events coming up
that will draw me away from it's tempting warmth. First I have two
new year's parties, one for work and one for my riding school, and
second, I'm attempting to make it out to Megane Bridge to see their
holiday illuminations before they're turned off on the 14th.
And I should probably get my oil changed, but the only excitement in
that is that I have yet to find a reliable car guy in the area (not
that I've searched...).
Anyway I'm particularly excited for the
riding school party because it'll be my first group gathering with
everyone in the school because the lessons are split up by team. I
mean I already know almost everyone but I still think it'll be pretty
fun to get to know everyone better. And I haven't met anyone on the
dressage team yet. I've felt like I have been lacking in friends that
I can say random horse stuff too since I came to Japan, and now that
I'm in the riding school and have been hanging out at the riding club
for whole days at a time, it's really nice to be able to chat about
horse things again. Also the following Monday is a national holiday
so we're all going to stay over at a nice hotel and then head back to
the club in the morning.

---Ramen Tatsumi---
I tried a new ramen shop the other day!
Which is pretty exciting because I hadn't yet been able to go
anywhere but hana no kura simply
because that place is that good. But anyway, this place is called
Ramen tatsumi and on
top of carrying about six flavors of ramen, they also had cheese
ramen! I had totally never even heard of this before, so I was really
excited. Being fairly obsessed with cheese, I had to try this flavor.
It was pretty good actually, with various toppings and melted cheese
on top of the pork slices. If I ever get a cheese craving I'll go
back there for sure.
今間、ラーメンたつみという店に行ってみた。花の蔵以外のラーメン屋はまだ行っていなかったから(どうしてかと言うと花の蔵はそんなにおいしいから)楽しみにしていた。この「ラーメンたつみ」という店は6種類ぐらいも作っていて、チーズラーメンも持っているんだ。この味があると初めて知ったから食べるのを楽しみにしていた。チーズが大好きなので、食べなきゃと思っていた。色々なトッピングがあって、チャーシューの上にチーズが載せて、かなりおいしかった。

| It actually looks better than this but I forgot to take a photo before mixing it all up. That white stuff around the edges is cheeseeeee 本当はこれより美味しく見えたんだけど混ぜる前に写真をとるのを忘れちゃった。 |
Also I just stopped
out at the Biwa Club Gallery to check out an exhibition of local
resident, Yamanashi Hiroshi's LP record collection. He had about
sixty antique record jackets displayed on the walls of the gallery,
and he played selections from the collection on an old record player
for those walking through the gallery.あとは山梨博のLPレコードコレックション出展を見るためにびわ倶楽部ガレリーによりました。
