Good evening, everyone. Have you been well?
Recently I’ve been receiving a lot of letters from people saying they would like to get to know me a bit better. So this time I’ve decided to answer your questions, just a little.

Question 1: What food do you like/hate most?

I don’t have any!....well, it would be lovely if I could say that at any rate…
I can’t eat nato…it’s quite vexing…
But anything else is fine. Especially sweet things I suppose.
Western candy’s good, but I like Japanese sweets better. I also like fruit.
I must profess that, of all the fruits, wild strawberries are my favorite. Lately I’ve been thinking “gee~I like peaches and cherries” though.
For drinks I like tea, and I really like black tea cause it’s sweet. My favorite’s Mariage Freres.
I’ve been able to go to shops in the Ginza area before and relax and sip my tea. That was great.
Lately I’ve noticed there are places to do that in Shinjuku too, and that kinda surprised me.
I just like standard kinds of stuff, like Marko Polo.
But now I drink rakan fruit juice for my throat instead, so I ended up not drinking black tea at all.
When I do drink tea, it’s chamomile etc. only.

Question 2: Please tell me what kind of foundation and make-up related products you use.

I mainly use Lansome for foundation. The other stuff depends on what I feel like using at the time; I really don’t know what it is (laughs). But for several years now I’ve been using Lansome idorasen lotion for moisturizer. I like it lots.
Oh yeah, by the way, I use Moruton Brown shampoo. There are almost no stores in Japan that sell it ~ how pesky it is!

Well, this is long enough for now, and so I shall end. I’ll simply do it again (laughs); I think I’d like to answer more in the future. Later then.
