Hello, this is staff member Yuki. Today marked our first day of work for the New Year. Thank you so much to everyone who visited us today, including our new customers.
Meeting “Neige” and My Son’s Skiing
Now, to share a bit of a personal story. My second son has physical and intellectual disabilities, as well as some medical needs, so managing daily life can be quite difficult. However, amidst all that, the one thing he fell completely in love with was “skiing.”
After giving birth to my second son, I thought family skiing trips would be difficult to achieve, but meeting Neige made that dream come true.
And believe it or not, my son has been featured on the cover of this year’s Neige pamphlet!!
The scenery of the snowy mountains, the crisp air, and the sight of him skiing freely make for a truly special time. If you have wanted to try it but haven’t been able to take that first step, please try contacting Neige.
We have placed the pamphlets in our shop as well, so please take a look if you are interested.

Delicious Bread from “Hot Station”
We received a delivery of Shokupan (loaf bread) from “Hot Station,” a disability support facility in Kawaguchi City. They always deliver the bread with big smiles, which makes us feel warm and fuzzy inside.
It seems this bread is made using a recipe passed down directly from a certain famous bakery, and it is truly delicious! Please enjoy our self-service butter toast when you visit.
