Kotatsu!


Kotatsu!
Originally uploaded by sab-chan.
This is some of the furniture I bought myself last week. The thing in the middle (a kotatsu), and the book shelves.

A kotatsu is a little table with a heater underneath it. You sit under the blanket and the heater keeps you all warm. You can cook Nabe or Shabu Shabu on top... Mmm, nice. And of course, you can play footsie with your opposite number. This one sits four so there could be plenty of footsy going on.

On topic of all things Japanese - started to read the book - Memoirs of a Geisha - so far so good. Its an interesting look in Japan anyway - yet to see the film (need subtitles) so whats the verdict on it over there?

Film and book are getting good reviews here.

Furniture looks interesting! Better than ikea!

The film is in English... Go see it whilst it is still at the cinema. It wont be worth it at home...
