#LectinFree #MorningCoffee | Mon. 7 July
Day 13 after the move.
Now I wake with the sunrise—just months ago, I was still asleep at that hour.
In a sunlit dining room, I share wake-up coffee with my mother Akko, living with schizophrenia.
The time feels more special now. Her face has softened, and her smile has grown.
This apartment, this neighborhood, this land—
they’ve welcomed us warmly, I believe.
First post since March 18.
Thank you to the 9 who waited.

#LectinFree #Health | Mon.18 Mar.
Thursday night’s dinner offered an unexpected lesson. An elegant Italian course, thoughtfully adjusted for my allergies, came with zucchini noodles in place of wheat pasta. Later, I checked the lectin-free guidelines—zucchini was a misstep. Even the smallest detail can make all the difference when precision is everything.
Taking time to fully rebalance, meaning updates may be less frequent for now. Grateful for your warm support and looking forward to returning refreshed.
#Today's #LectinFree #Brunch | Sat.15 Feb.
Steamed veggie salad with cabbage, carrots, onions, broccoli, and okra, plus a boiled egg—all soaking up my mum’s tangy sanbaizu. Miso soup so packed it’s practically a meal—wakame, dried Chinese cabbage, frozen spinach, konjak, and sardines in Kyoto-style white miso.
Finishing with silky sweet potato drizzled in perilla oil, plus a coffee blend smooth enough to round off the meal just right.

Miso soup 🍜 with dried Chinese cabbage, cabbage, spring onions, and canned sardines.
Sweet potatoes 🍠 drizzled with perilla oil, perfectly matched with a strong coffee ☕ to wrap it up.
All lovingly made by my mum, who, despite not feeling her best, still poured her heart into it. Grateful beyond words.
Today's #LectinFree #Brunch | Thurs, 13 Feb.
Steamed veggie salad: broccoli, onion, carrot, and canned herring with my home's signature sanbaizu dressing.
Miso soup with frozen salmon, which arrived yesterday, Kyoto white miso, and plenty of dried napa & Chinese cabbage.
Hot, fluffy sweet potatoes, freshly delivered this morning, topped with perilla oil—heavenly. Paired with coffee for the perfect mariage, enhancing the sweetness and finishing on a high note. ☕🍠✨
