I died for a moment of envy. Then I recovered and cheered your great week. Loved your posts on the Mukune blog, so practical: long underwear!

I am homesick homesick homesick…let’s see what bottle I have in the fridge…

Nice hat!

Can’t wait to get down there and move some koji. Hope to catch you for a grilling before I start!

Take care and gambatte, Ted!

Yes, the blue ribbon isn’t a prize, it is just part of the system for interns here. There are six of us and each day we work in a pair with a different partner. Then each of those partners is assigned to one of the Daimon Shuzo staff: Kashira, Arai-san, or Makine-san. So, the interns wear blue, green, or yellow, and so do the real kurabito. That way everyone knows who is doing what and where we should be.

Te-chan, Is that blue ribbon part of your work uniform at the kura?
