curry day

twenty-seven years and one million words

Tokyo, 2009.10.04

We went to the park this morning for a curry cook-oy being hosted by the daycare mother's group. It was good fun, especially for Mari who got to talk at length with the teachers and other parents.

Kenny had fun running around and finding new ways of turning shirts brown. His favourite was the traditional face-down tumble onto the dirt, it turns out. That and sliding face-first down a slide that's been clambered over by dozens if not hundreds of shoed children.

The curry was really quite good, too, though Japanese curry is not my favourite form of the dish. Happily, the weather cooperated completely.
