How fabulous is this poster by Mogu Takahashi? Its the first of an exciting new Pikabooks venture from the always inspiring Pikaland, and teaches basic Japanese. And for only $20. So cool.
I'm sure that I need this, curse Project Nifty Thrifty. Still, I must learn to live lightly (must live lightly, lightly...) not least because we have no space. Literally: I spent the best part of an hour today trying to find a laundry bin to fit in the only minute scrap of floor space we have for one. Just as soon as I find somewhere to put the suitcase currently occupying it.
We do have a laundry bin, I hasten to add, but since the bedroom was rearranged this weekend (so I can actually sit on a chair at my splendid executive desk rather than perch on a pile of cushions on the edge of the bed for eight hours a day, mangling my spine in the process) the only place we could fit it has been on on top of the chest of drawers meaning it is above head height. Handy.
Still, the loveliness will remain on my wish list. After all, who knows when I'll need to be able to say 'shoes' in Japanese...
