Jinja and Shoga: Life in the Land of the Rising Sun

     How did it get to be October 1st already?? Time has been passing by way, way too quickly...and I have the feeling that it will continue to do so until little Sigourney arrives. But, fall is more than welcome after this insanely hot summer. Plus, Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, so I've already been on the lookout for some seasonal decor. Halloween still isn't really celebrated here in Japan, but autumn-themed items are abudant right now, and occassionally a random Halloween costume or treat can also be spotted.
 For example, the caramel pudding Kit Kats that we bought at the store last night. I was a bit hesitant to buy them since regular pudding Kit Kats definitely aren't a favorite, but seeing as this bag was decorated for Halloween, I gave in.
  Overal consensus: they're good!!! Not as tasty as the caramel salt Kit Kats, but pretty good nonetheless. Maybe a 7.5 or an 8 out of 10, plus bonus points for the cute packaging!

                                      'Family-size' bag...family-size here equals 14 mini Kit Kats

                               The minis inside are decorated with either: evil looking cats; a pirate and a cat, or a jack-o-lantern and a Frankenstein girl
