Inspired by DIY acrylic charms on taobao, I decided to make Ishin-themed DIY acrylic charms after I finished playing that game :D ...

You can buy stickers by themselves (complete with free US shipping), or you can add 2 omamori acrylic blanks to your order--that said if you buy all 4 sheets, 2 acrylics will be included in your order free of charge.

Also here's a vid that shows how I add stickers to the acrylic blanks.

Finally got around to finishing Musui’s Story. If you ever have a chance to pick up this book, I highly recommend it. Katsu Kokichi is the funniest man who ever lived and his story in his own words is as fascinating as it is absurd

Robert Henri - Miss Kaji Waki (1909)

Robert Henri was a master portraitist dedicated to presenting “newly come immigrants” and others largely invisible to the genteel audiences of the Gilded Age. However, his portraits were concerned less with identity than with a “democratic individuality” he sought in modern life. This portrait of Kaji Waki is a case in point. Here, Henri conflates the tradition of the society portrait with the direct gaze and insouciant attitude of the street urchin. The brazen spirit is reinforced by the crude brush, which dashes her cheeks and lips with dramatic color. Yet Bertha Adeline Waki Kaji (1887–1959) was the paternal granddaughter of Count Rintaro Katsu, the “Last Samurai,” a leading Japanese statesman during the Meiji Restoration. While Henri’s portrait promotes her “exoticism,” Kaji’s illustrious bloodline precluded her affiliation with modernism’s grittier subjects. (source)

A definite gem in the Bay Area not to be missed. Thanks Sylvan for the extra treats! Homemade tofu, yakitori, chrysanthemum greens with duck and kumquats, gyoza, millefeuille miso pork katsu, and whole rock cod. Don’t skip out on dessert. There are three and you should get them all. I could eat the sesame and matcha ice creams for days. And I need them to bottle the hojicha syrup on the green tea panna cotta. And don’t miss out on appreciating the craftsmanship put into the space. Another one I want in my hood. @mr_rintaro #izakayarintaro #japanesefood #sanfrancisco (at Izakaya Rintaro) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtFFnikhqd4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1d1p9xpbbv3za

This octalogy shall consist of eight parts; two main novels, one prequel novella, three interquel novellas, a bridging story between the first and second novel, and an epilogue novella.
