Your 2026 food omiyage / souvenir picks?
I know this question has probably been asked several times in the past, but it is also the kind of question to which the answer changes frequently! So, I am curious - what are your top food souvenir picks for 2026? I am going home again soon, and I want to get food omiyage for several people, including the school where my son is about to finish a one-year exchange. I would love to hear your thoughts on the BEST Japanese food omiyage around this year! And / or the food omiyage you buy each and every time you are going home because it's always a big hit? I just had the photo in this post to hand, and it is not a recommendation per se, it's not bad and fits well into a suitcase, but it's not the best strawberry daifuku I ever had.

Your recommendations for office attire for women?
I dress office casual (no jeans) in an educational institution. I like to look classy and kind of fun. Which clothing retailers do you recommend for separates? Hard-wearing and machine-washable items? Either online or brick-and-mortar? I'll offer one Amazon Japan seller to get us started - Coen - コーエン with a good selection of tops and bottoms, I combine with my staples.

Photo in post not working?
Is it just me or is there something wrong with the "insert image" in the body of the text? I have tried on three different posts and even if I successfully upload a photo, it isn't showing on the post. It will show in the gallery though. Anyone else having the same problem?
