It depends: does your oven toaster have some functions / temp control or is it literally just switch on / switch off? If you can adjust heat and it has a timer, I believe it is possible. I know we can do it in our toaster oven, but I've never actually done it!

I believe so, but only limited to some food like pizza rolls and cookies.

If your oven has controls for temp and time you should easily be able to bake bread. I bake things all the time in mine, at least 3 times a week.

I have a countertop convection oven and it allows me to bake cakes, cookies, lambchops etc. everything that I would normally cook in a regular oven. So like someone else mentioned I believe it depends on the functions and capabilities of the oven that you purchase! A toaster oven will be limited in options.

If it has temperature controller or time controller, it should be okay :)

Fears in Japan that you didn't have in your home country?

I've written a number of blogs here on City-Cost about how bears are a real worry in my area these days, and it's something that I didn't have to concern myself with in my home country. I know people talk about snakes and spiders in Australia being deadly (and yes, there are some types that are), but they're not typically going to come and attack you unprovoked. Also, it's a lot easier to outrun a snake or a spider than a bear ;) I'm curious about the rest of you, if you have fears here that maybe weren't present in your country of origin. Let me know in the comments!

Christmas - shopping, meals, etc. - how are we faring?

I saw a press release this morning from FamilyMart, which promoted their festive season eats but also covered a survey about spending. The survey mentioned most people planning to celebrate Christmas at home aim to spend less than 5,000 yen on food. How does your budget look in comparison to that? Do you go all out for Christmas here if it was something you celebrated in your home country, or is it a quieter celebration owing to it not being an official holiday here? How about Christmas shopping? Have you got strict budgets in place, and have you completed your shopping or are you still looking for bits and pieces for people?

From October to February, the Diamond Fuji phenomenon is visible for a few days. Have you seen this sight before? Where did you watch it from? Is it close to transportation?
