Things have been somewhat hectic for the past few days. I had been so busy preparing the appetizers for Yuuko's Moon Viewing Festival that I nearly forgot about my application for a teacher position. With some luck, I was able to handle all the paper work right on time, and today I received official confirmation from Ville de Lumiere High School on ( Read more... )

The end of  Summer has brought about quite an uproar in Lumiere, it seems. Children everywhere have been rebelling against  their return to school, whereas a selected few are actually eager to attend classes.  I should be thankful that my daughter is among this small group, but the situation still worries me a little. Proper education is necessary ( Read more... )

I've been working at the Starlight Cafe for a couple of weeks, and I must admit it never crossed my thoughts that it could be so much fun. It certainly feels nice to meet so many people on a daily basis.

Fai-san really is somewhat eccentric as I have been warned earlier, but he's also a very kind person, and now that he is back, things have been a ( Read more... )

Today I officially begin my work activities at the Starlight Cafe. It feels nice to be helpful once more, even if it is something as simple as providing good food for everyone. It will also be a great opportunity to spend more time with Sakura-hime, as we have only seen each other for a few brief times ever since I arrived in this city. There is ( Read more... )

Apparently, my culinary skills remain flawless as ever, if I may say so myself. I believe they might even have improved some, since I started trying out all these new ingredients. My deepest thanks to all the kind young ladies who offered to help me in the process. Miss Regina and miss Pudding, I hope your special orders have made it to your hands ( Read more... )

Since I might be working at the Starlight Cafe soon, I've spent this week doing experiments with recipes from my former world, as well as a few from this one. Lumiere has such an amazing variety of ingredients! I shall take a long while to try them all, but it should be worth it. Moreover, it has given me something to do with my excessive spare ( Read more... )

I have found Sakura-hime; better yet, she was the one to find me.

I was so happy to meet my daughter again. She is not the same as she was when I last saw her, though; she has grown up into a beautiful young lady and has been through hard trials, but her kind heart and warm smile have remained. For that, I am glad. Apparently, she hasn't been in ( Read more... )

So I paid a visit to Lumiere's government building, just like miss Chii suggested me to do. They kindly granted me a place to stay, as well as some money so I can handle myself until I decide what kind of work I should get and settle down ( Read more... )

I had thought I'd never again have the pleasure to taste sweets, or to take a sip of some good wine or sake. That I'd never again see my children playing through the corridors, or my daughter's smile. That I'd never have a chance to teach my young apprentice how to control his powers. That I would never take control of the immense powers laying ( Read more... )
