Just a typical afternoon meal

Daikon and shirataki noodles in dashi (we ate it with a spicy green paste, sansho wasabi), rice, miso soup, boiled mung beans, kimchee and other pickles. The miso soup also has finely sliced daikon, with age tofu and the green tops from the fresh daikon.

Mom likes the vape, and has cut her cigarettes back more than half.

Mameshiba and GeGeGe no Kitaro

A couple of bizarre things on TV.

Mameshiba are like beans (mame) and little dogs. They show up as short animations on TV. This one is on currently, bizarre and a little disturbing while still being cute. Check out the video.

GeGeGe no Kitarō is an anime show. It has a very odd character, the father of the main character. A tiny man with an eyeball head.
