i'm so sorry about having been absent from this place so long.
i had worked so hard on renewing our (me and my photography friend mori's, who is actually my husband) website.
our website's name is " mug'n mug".
we started that place about 1 year ago, 5, may, '08.
while we had been preparing launching our new website 1 year ago, we brainstormed about the name of the place.
we caught up with some interesting ones. ( or i'd say some of them were weired and i don't dare to say about those here ;) )
we finally chose "mug'n mug" as it is, this tells some story about us.

first of all, and most important, it comes from the episode that 2 white mug cups are the first tableware that i bought just after we began our relationship about 16 years ago.
for 16 years, we experienced a lot of things, like 2 years geographically separated realationship because of the graduation from the school and beginning the new start, the mariage, moving from japan to u.s., .... and so on.
and through all of those events, we'd always brought those 2 white mugs with us.
so those are the symbol for our everlasting relationship.

meanwhile, on weekend mornings we like to talk about photography with sipping coffee.
also i personally love to take pictures of a cup of coffee or just an empty mug cup.
all in all, we thought " mug'n mug" is the perfect name for our new endeavor.

i talked kind of long.
anyway i proudly want to introduce our new place to you, friends.
please come by with sipping your coffee :)

(today, no letter. i've already talked the words much love letter like, i think ;) )
