Lucky Bag Madness, 2010 Edition!
Jan. 2nd, 2010 09:22 amSo, when I looked back at 2009, I see that I did not post pictures from the fukubukuro last year.
I was sick. Oh. That was when I got to stay in bed when I got sick - right. Okay.
Well, welcome to the first holiday since March of last year where I have NOT been sick (hooray!) - both Christmas and New Years have been plague-free!
So I got up on time, got kid up on time, got us both dressed and through both Burger King and Starbucks (yum yum breakfast) and to Marukai just in time to get in line for the 200 (of each kind) lucky bags that Marukai does every New Year's Day.
I love 'em. And with kid along, getting the bags to the car was FUN - because to have hands free in a parking lot? Kid had to ride on my shoulders and hold my latte. AMUSING.
Let's check out the haul. (I was able to score two of each kind.
kiyone is scoped out for the non-food bag, and
catsonmars gets the food version.) But here are mine:

The non-food bag was 11.2 pounds, and the food bag was 18.8 pounds all by itself.
( Wanna see what's inside? )
