What is Wrong With the Sweets Here?

Wow, haven't updated in almost 3 weeks??  Where does the time go.

Anyways, this will probably be a fast post.  I have a test tomorrow and am really just procrastinating by being on here.  (Already did all my laundry and made food...)

Anyways, on to the post.

Japanese words of the week:

Moufu (mow-foo) もうふ - blanket, plain and simple.  Ah, the comfort of many a children all around the world.  It ain't surprising that I'm in love with my nice, fluffy warm blanket.....

Fukuro (foo-koo-ro) ふくろ - bag.  Not to be confused with kaban, or bag/purse, this word means the bag that things like groceries and other such shopping items get placed into upon purchasing.  Japanese are very careful with giving out their fukuro, you usually only get one or two for a crap load of groceries.  If you have a eco-bag, many times they knock off a few cents from your total.

Also, there's a store called Big-A.  This place doesn’t give you bags at all, so if you purchase  something, make sure you bring an eco-bag or at least something to carry  your stuff with.

Why isn't this sweet?? ----->

I want my sweets dengit!  And I don't mean the chocolate milk!
