Nikki, that soup bowl is standard size for things like ramen and pho, asian noodle soups. The bottom is smaller than the top, and you don't finish the broth. I'll be here until May if you hurry and get a visa... I know, I couldn't believe the tiramisu. We've had it many times in Japan, its made in layers and the Japanese and French serve it so you can see the layers of cake, pudding and whip cream dusted with cocoa. Leave it to China to copy but get it just a little off. It was DELICIOUS though. No complaints about taste.

I'm happy to see that table again. I did many ceramic tile projects at that Tennessee house. The table is the only thing I can keep. テベルを見たら、うれしいなります。前のテネシー州の家に沢山陶磁器タイルをプロジェクトをしたので、あのテレルだけを持ってくることができます。

Char> You are right, that top picture has quite the appeal. Gives the sense of going somewhere, many choices, and also a sense of power. Jonah knows people in marketing, maybe he can assist.

These are all very nice, Martin. Thanks for sharing what you've been seeing every day. I miss the Michigan colors. And the other Michigan colors, blue and maize.
