Family run mochi and manju shop in Little Tokyo in LA that has been open since 1903. Try everything, it’s all good 🍡

Best mochi in Los Angeles, no contest. Extremely strong vibes in there, has been family owned and operated since 1903. My favorite is the peanut butter mochi that comes in the unassuming plastic carton (unlike its fancier red bean counterparts that are meticulously decorated and snuggled into ruffled paper cups).

This traditional Japanese snack is one of my all-time favorites. I grew up eating these as my Grandma is from Okinawa, Japan. I love the sweet and sticky rice cake filled with sweet red beans. Every time I eat one of these treats, it brings me back to my childhood going to my grandma's house after school and watching cartoons until my parents picked me up.

The best kind of donut there is. There’s a place in Toronto doing some cool limited run flavours like miso caramel and mitarashi dango.
Frig it’s good.

Sometimes you can just exist. you don’t (hopefully) need 50 hustles. You don’t need to be a writer and musician and artist and podcaster and influencer and girlboss or whatever. you don’t even need to signal how cool or smart or attractive you are. I know it’s hard cause I think our society incentives (forces?) people to be “on” all the time, but it’s probably better for your own sake to just exist for yourself and your love ones and to adjust your expectations of what a successful or meaningful life is.
Sorry for being pedantic, just know a lot of friends and family my age or younger that seem to be struggling right now in all sorts of ways. Just know, regardless of what anyone says or even what you say or do, that you guys have inherent dignity and you are worth something

Eat yogurt, kimchi/sauerkraut, miso, kefir, kombucha, pickles, certain soft cheeses cause they’re good for you
I never had a problem shitting I just like funky foods and pretending my gut is a nightclub where all the bacteria are dancing and having a good time like it’s osmosis jones or something
