It's today's heat that makes you think that the heat of the World Cup last night is continuing. The end of the rainy season seems to be still, but more than 30 degrees is hot! Imabari towels are completely branded as "Towels are Imabari", but Fujitaka Towel is a long-established store that was founded in 1919 and will be celebrating its 100th anniversary next year. June 20 We opened the first directly managed store in Ginza. Immediately after entering the traffic light at Ginza 6-chome, it is a street shop close to GINZASIX. The very stylish shop, made from 100 years old wood from North Europe, is lined with calm-colored towels lined up in cases made of the same old wood. Everyone seems to want it! Today, I've got two gym towels. Do you think it looks like senior when you put it on your shoulders? There are various types, from high-quality ones pursuing suppleness to everyday use (house towels) claiming to be the "ultimate basic towels" received this time. I put it in a very nice box, so it's gone for myself. I wonder if it's a perfect gift.

With the permission of the manager, I took a picture of the inside of the store. It's a nice atmosphere for everyone.

On June 12, a new store of "Gunma-chan family" opened. It is on the 1st and 2nd floor of a building with a line of ZARA corner on Chuo-dori. According to the shop, DISPLAY was refreshing because the area was about 1.3 times larger. The product has become very easy to see. "Eh! I bought it for the first time, but I was told, "I've been left for a long time ..." But this is a bit interesting. Recommended for those who are on a diet. "Konjac Yakisoba" (432 yen) What is this 100g / 17kcal. In addition, we also had "Namaimo Konjac" (270 yen). In commemoration of the re-opening, there is also "Seven Lucky Gods's Kosenmochi".

The first floor is a product sales space, but in the eating and drinking space on the second floor, you can enjoy dishes using seasonal ingredients from Gunma Prefecture, which is technically instructed by "Kyoto Yoshicho". This is from late July. I'm looking forward to it.

Sprayed candy, karinto, twisting, karumerayaki, and local sweets are now booming and each department store has corners. This exhibition, which was filled with nostalgic candy, said, "For half a century, Kosaku Ishibashi (1900-1976), a candy craftsman in Sendai City, completed a field survey of major cities in Japan from Tohoku to Hokkaido to Kyushu. This is a record of local sweets compiled in a booklet that has been written and bound as detailed records in pictures and sentences. " (Exhibition Pamphlet)

Simple local sweets made from flour, syrup, brown sugar, etc., manufactured nationwide from the Edo era to the Meiji and Taisho eras, are called "candy" for sweets made from white sugar. Mr. Ishibashi categorizes the types of candy into "faith confectioneries", "michinaka confectioneries", "event confectioneries", "drawn confectioneries", "drug confectioneries", etc. Mr. Ishibashi seems to have a lot of pictures, saying, "The definition of candy is history and climate," which is recorded in the record of the children. Since I was free to shoot, I would like to introduce a few items that show the atmosphere from the "Dagashi pilgrimage". "Yakudagashi" has toothache and diarrhea, and it seems that this was sold at a drug dealer, but "Dagashi with toothache" is something funny.

On the way to Takashimaya-san after leaving the venue, I saw the sacred winesho and the festival Japanese lantern everywhere, and realized that this year was the year of the Sanno Festival. Just today, it is the Shinko Festival, and the city is full of visitors from the cruise line such as Goho and floats.

Kikugoro's "Gosuke Noble" by Mr. Kikugoro who blows away the rainy season sky-Kabukiza June Daikabuki

I came to the daytime of Kabukiza Theater the day after the rainy season in Kanto was reported. This month, after a long absence, the performance will be held day and night, and the daytime will be the first time in 20 years played by Kikugoro, "Nobleaching Gosuke" by silent Ami, and the first time in 24 years in the evening section, "Street evening shrine rain" (Nobuo Uno) This is Shiban's first role. Also, it is a hot topic that Kazufumi Terashima appears in the role of the son of Yoshiemon's group Shichikurobei and Kikunosuke and the Kaji couple in the evening section of the Summer Festival Naniwakan.

By the way, "Gosuke Nobaru" at lunch is an envy hero who is fascinated by the two daughters who saved the difficulties and is pushed by them and forced to "wife". Kikugoro, who had a very troubled look surrounded by two daughters, laughed and applauded from the audience. Sharekobe is also used in the pattern of the costume according to the name of "Nobleach", and the changed costume has the "Kamawanu" pattern of Otowa-ya. The umbrella around the mountain gate is Otowa-ya. It is a refreshing performance that is visually refreshing and blows the rainy season sky. The daytime section is Tokizo's "Senshiyama Niwanori" and Kikunosuke's dance "Bunya".
