Un-iced fishie cake. No eggs or sugar for the six 1year olds coming for the birthday party.
The Ashman came up with the way to cut this from a round cake.

I am waiting for the ATM machine to issue a new passbook to replace a full one. Zero human contact!  Is this what the world is coming to?
But while I wait, a happy little animation keeps me entertained for the 90seconds that it takes.
Cool huh?

Tradition at first birthday of carrying a “whole life’s”  worth of rice on his back - 10 gô or about 3kgs . It is a clever play on words in japanese.  (He really did have 3kg of mochi on his back)
Then he had to choose his future from 3 paper options. He chose to be a writer from the other two options of business or wealth.

 

This is a very interesting tradition and for a good explanation, see this link here. Japonophile - First birthday traditions.  Explains it much better than I could. 

Still looking for a good link about the choosing profession - there were three cards - one with a brush (writer), one with money (wealth - undefined origin) and an abacus (business professional)

Very funny.
I think Ethan is getting cuter everyday. He dances the moment he hears music.

White chocolate with espresso accents. Not too strong but not super special.
8/10

Single fat fingers with a kind of graham cookie flavour. Wheat biscuit aftertaste that was not too bad. Not as sweet as some of the more recent kit kats.
7.5/10 or maybe 8/10
The Ashman wanted more so bonus point.
