Pochi-bukuro

Pochi-bukuro is one of the Japanese tradition.

Many times, pochi-bukuro is decorated by shiny ribbons.
What should be inside?

Money! Japanese people enclose the money in it. You can't post it, bring it to someone directly.

When is it used?

For wedding (you should select pink, gold, red, happy colors)

For glowing up (when somebody's birthday, celebration for being college student....etc)

For new years day (Japan has a custom to give money for kids on New years)

For funeral (you should select black and white ribbon one).

So, when you see these kind of envelop at shop, remember, this is for MONEY.

Japanese pocket warmer

Kairo or Hokkairo=カイロor ホッカイロ= Pocket warmer.
I found this Eco Kairo at Tokyu Hands Store in Kita-senju, Tokyo, Japan.
In Japan, kairos are winter items. Most of the kairo are paper covered, but this is covered by special prastic.

This is "Pizza Hot"


This is canned coffees

Canned shape Eco Kairo

This is " Tai-Yaki" shape Eco kairo 

Once you opened kairos from the box, see the back side. There is the circle shape metal inside.
You hold that till it makes "Paki" sound. The liquid will become white, and it will warm up.
（I' m using pizza one)

When you are done to use it, boil it for 3 minutes. (This is the back side of Tai-Yaki Kairo)

When the liquid turned back to clear, take it out from the pan.

Wash it with the cold water till it cool down.  Now, you are ready to use it again.

I bought it from Tokyo Hands, Kita senju.

You can also buy it from these shops below.

I found this in the cute store. It is called Fridge Zoo. You just need to settle this in the refridge.

If the door was opened, it will cry. If you selected Cow, it will say "Mu~ Mu~" till you close the door. I saw this once on TV. It is so cute.
