Sweets every day.... 毎日スイーツ




 I get sweets on break time at work almost every day.  Most of time, our boss gets us some sweets from sweets shop or convenience store. It's good time but I think I've been having too much sweets recently. Besides this, I often take chocolate while I'm working because it's easy to get tired. Glucose take away my tired. But it's just too much sometime. Like today, my co- worker brought some her original cheese cake And also our boss brought some sweets as always. So we had two different sweets for break time. That was definitely too much even for me.  I am gaining. I'm dying to go runnying again.

 会社の休憩ではほぼ毎日甘い物を食べてる。だいたい社長がコージーコーナーやコンビニで買ってくるスイーツ。それはいいんだけど、さすがに最近は甘い物食べすぎだ。これとは別に、疲れやすい仕事なので、自分は仕事中にチョコを頻繁に食べる。疲れたらブドウ糖。ただ採り過ぎ。今日みたいに、同僚の子がオリジナルチーズケーキを持ってきたりと、更に社長のお約束スイーツのおもてなし。休憩時間にダブルスイーツはいくらなんでもきつい。太ったよ。そろそろまた走り行きたい。

Happy holiday everyone!


About Christmas cake, the most popular one in Japan is decorative strawberry shortcake.  Yes we can  get strawberry at grocery store even on winter season. Many people from America left comment that said their Christmas cake was fruit cake. And apparently it's not good....? Really? It sounds just good to me though.... I'm not sure if I have ever seen the fruit cake before.

How do you get excited when X'mas coming? I'm almost 40 mid age man but I still like the mood...;;;;; lol  I know we Japanese are buddist but we still celebrate Western holiday.... but in many various ways (Young people)...LOL I think we just like to soak up the atmosphere of Christmas mood even though some of us don't even know.Dec 25th is the birthday of Jesus Christ.  The country of Japan, it's even funny to me.

日本のクリスマスケーキといえば、イチゴのショートケーキがもっとも有名。日本では冬でもいちごがスーパーで手に入ります。たくさんのアメリカ人の方々が、自国ではフルーツケーキがクリスマスケーキだとコメントしてくれました。不味いらしいです。本当に?なんか美味しそうだけど。見たことあるかなー。

クリスマスシーズンが近づくとどんな気分になりますか?僕は40近いおっさんだけど、未だにその雰囲気が好きだったりする。確かに我々日本は仏教だけど、クリスマスは祝います。。。色んな祝い方があるけど(若者は特に)。おそらく単に雰囲気を味わいたいだけなんだろうと。12月25日がイエス様の誕生日とか知らない人けっこういるのも事実だし。日本って可笑しな国だ。
