Oh dear.
It's come to my realization that candy is the only thing keeping me from taking up smoking. Well... Better fat and diabeetus than being unable to breathe...
Nah that was awful. I don't get fat, even with all this candy. I seem to be the only person who works at our shop that doesn't get sick of all the sweets.
Because of recent requests for our rice paper origami (oh my poor hands...) and getting calls if we do Asian sweets, Emi's been suggesting we begin making some traditional Chinese and Japanese pastries and the likes and having her Mom come to help. Dad has been mulling it over. He gave me some homework to go and look online at Japanese candy we can have imported. Just... Japan, why are you so freaky?! We might end up making a sample mochi batch this weekend to see what our clientele thinks. Bro and I really liked the star candy, the e-ma, the Kyoto hard candies and the little food kits and this weird thing called nerunerunerune, Dad got this kick out of this candy served in a container shaped like a toilet. Just... Papa, why? gonk
Dad's been considering sending Jules to Japan with Emi on some kind of candy exodus. But he needs the help he gets from the both of them. And seeing as I don't like travelling alone or long distances, I shan't be going, either.
So we're likely just going to use one of our new shelves for those candies we see online that we buy to stock up, and use some of the glass refridgerated case for our pastries that we make. Papa also expressed desire to learn how to make moon cakes sometime around this month. I wonder if it'd be okay to use anko for a filling?
