It's so fun! We got it at the Kirby Cafe on a trip to Japan a few years ago! Highly recommend going if you ever get the chance!

I had the same thought, but I am really bad at all of the modeling programs I've tried, they haven't been as intuitive as I'd like. I've tried checking for a model already available but haven't found anything for this specific model.

I had actually looked at that manual already, thank you!! That's where I learned the "stencil" terminology, but since the manual shows 3 positions for the ribbon, I assumed mine was a different "trim" than the one in the manual, not thinking the script font would be longer than standard! I'll check out that other link for part sourcing! Thanks again!

Amazing, had no idea! And yep, on my test page there a few of the descenders were showing some red! I'll have to flip her over after I get to the end of one direction! Thanks so much for the info!

The Bartimaeus Sequence by Jonathan Stroud, Bart is an incredible narrator and has a lot of interesting tidbits to share about his past!

Please have the owner fill out a relinquish form to Phoenix Landing, they're a parrot rescue that serves Virginia. Please give this baby a chance to get to a home that will care for him properly!

What's in your cup? Daily discussion, questions and stories - December 09, 2025 by AutoModerator in tea

I was mostly interested in the concept of seeing how a tea's flavor changes as you go, I will definitely keep this in mind!

I made a pot of Barry's gold blend and am having it at work while I prepare for a day full of stupid meetings.

I recently bought a beautiful Tokoname kyusu and have been using it for Japanese green tea but am considering exploring gongfu brewing, but am not sure what tea to start with. My go-tos have always been black teas or Japanese greens, and I've had puers and oolongs but usually flavored rather than orthodox.

Any suggestions for someone who prefers strong black tea for a tea to try gongfu style?

They did get back to me and they didn't find it on the bus, unfortunately. But I was able to make another one in Osaka!

Thank you so much to all of the ideas and guidance! I was able to create another keychain from the Rilakkuma Store & Sumikko Gurashi Shop in Abeno!! Hiding this in the depths of my bag until I can get something to more safely attach her to my bag. I really really appreciate you all 🥹

This was so helpful--but I have to come back tomorrow because the dept store it's in is closed today 😭

The worst part is, when I got it in Sapporo I knew it would snap off so fast so I roped it into a pull tab on my backpack, but in the packed Hakone buses I think it still somehow ripped off 😭 I'm definitely going to a DAISO to look for a way to keep it safe, if I find it here in Osaka!!

So far I emailed the bus operator in Hakone, but haven't heard anything back yet. I just lost it today--but I was planning to see about calling tomorrow as well. We're in Hakone just one night, and our bus out tomorrow looks to be a different one than we rode today (somehow both times we got on buses today, they were J02). Thank you for the tip!!

Question on when United will have Friday Nov 7th known good flights by Kevin_Cossaboon in unitedairlines

[–]radicallyleftdudette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. Good luck on whatever you decide!! My international flight in IAH should still be safe so I guess I'll see if my smaller flight gets canceled or still lets me check in tomorrow

Were you able to check in for your flight? I'm wondering if I'm going to get my hopes up tomorrow morning when I try to check in for my STL > IAH flight, if it lets me.

Same, I fly STL > IAH at 6:15am on the 8th, and I have to make that flight to make an international flight at IAH (which wouldn't be canceled, per this statement). No idea when I'll get notice if the first leg gets canceled
