There’s a wonderful crepe shop in the red brick warehouses in Hakodate that we’ve been to a couple times now. It has savory crepes too, but so far we’ve only had the dessert ones.

Who We Are
We’re Teddy and Cassie McCormick.
We’re currently in the process of moving to Japan.
We’re pretty cool in general.
Food Pics
Some of our friends suggested a part of the blog just for pictures of food we’ve eaten – this is going to be that section! Japan has a ton of fantastic food that’s as fun to look at as it is delicious, and this seems like a fun way to share it with our friends!

Playing Things By Ear
The funeral stuff was a lot; Cassie may do a post getting into the specifics more later, but I’m not going to pressure her to do it if she doesn’t feel up to it. But it’s over now, so things are settling down to… well, not normal, but that’s mostly because normal isn’t a thing […]

Back in Virginia
Boy, we knew Los Angeles was having a bit of a cool spell, but we didn’t expect Virginia to be this much hotter. Still, it’s nice to be back with family, even if it is for a funeral.

Time in Los Angeles, and a new posting philosophy
So I’ve realized that part of why I’ve been posting less has been that I view fewer of the things in my life as eventful or noteworthy. Problem is, I made this blog so people can see what I’m up to, not just see the most interesting things I do.

Korea and Los Angeles
We’re back in the USA! After a brief visit to Korea to see some friends there, we took the 13-odd hour flight to Los Angeles and we’re now here, safe and sound and getting over some tremendous jet lag.

Big News
Okay, so our departure from Japan was a bit of a whirlwind. But the good kind! I don’t want to bury the lede, so let me open by saying: we have a path to a visa!
