A stray cat peers into the store from outside the window.
When I stared at him, he suddenly lost his balance, and his outstretched hand missed the window frame and fell to the ground.
The season is about to become tough for stray cats. I wonder how they will spend their time...
Now then…
Monday, a relaxed, rainy business day.
Even during the day, the seats in the back of the store are already so cold that you need air conditioning.
When we were open on weekends, it was so hot during the day that we had to keep the doors open to let in some air, but it's about time to start preparing the heating. Time flies.
So, in order to be able to respond immediately, I took the time today to test run the stove and fan heater.
I hurriedly unloaded my luggage and transferred the kerosene from the can...
Winter after the earthquake.
There was a time when stoves were selling well and we were out of stock.
I bought a used Aladdin for my garage online.
An old-fashioned form. A worn-out item is perfect for a shop.
Stoves are really great after all.
Well, it does get quite cold, but the owner loves the atmosphere in the shop at this time of year the most.
The smell of striking a match to light a fire.
The air gently warmed by the stove, the steam rising from the kettle... there's something calming about gazing at the flames.
Hot coffee also fits in well with this atmosphere.
It feels like winter has finally arrived.
At times like this, I get a little excited.
The business has been in full swing since the kerosene vendor began making mobile sales.
