What’s good?

Another day another project, not a denim project but a positive challenge nonetheless. Finland is experiencing the highest temperatures in a century (global warming anyone) and you know what, I love it. Reminds me of Malaysia. All we need is 50% more humidity and that’s it. People are going crazy and acting crazy as well. I mean folks don’t feel like working (which is why majority of the country is on summer vacation right now) and those who do work mostly complain about the hot weather. Chill folks, no pun intended. It’s summer time. Just sit back, relax and listen to some Aston Martin music.

What’s good everyone?

Today was spent lounging, eating good food and enjoying the sun with few gin tonics to cool things down. Now back on my blog. I did not post anything yesterday due to the very hectic day moving from one apartment to another. The kitchen/bathroom renovation drew us out of casa de Stark and such a move usually involves plenty of work. I was basically carrying stuff the whole day.

Good evening to you and yours!

Today has been one for the books. I mean casa de Chao-Kuisma is looking like a refugee camp (not that I have ever seen one outside the TV) and it will look like this until we move to our temporary apartment to escape the incoming bathroom/piping renovation. Basically they’re going to rip the pipes off the bathroom and unfortunately our kitchen and replace them to new ones. This however means that we are outta here, since we’re not too keen on staying here without electricity and water for the next three months. It’s all good, it’s just three months right?

What’s good?

Sundays are usually pretty damn good. I mean I’ve been lounging the whole day. My biggest achievements of the day have been couple of emails and cooking pancakes for my wife (and myself of course). So how to start the Momotaro Jeans Copper Label update of the day? I think it’s best to approach this chronologically with all starting on Friday 4th of June.

What’s good?

I’m just back from a nice few mile walk in with the wife. The weather is still a bit chilly but at least sunny. It’s awesome to see the nature blooming and coming into life very rapidly. It’s like Hanami out there. No cherry trees around though. But hey, there’s always apple trees.

What’s good y’all,

What a weekend. Yesterday was as many deemed it “the last warm day in a while.” So we spent most of it outside. True enough it started raining in the evening and it has rained most of the day, but I’m not mad, I love the fresh “after the rain” air. This week’s Copper Label project update is presented to you without detailed pics but rather an alternative way of rocking my jeans during the warmer days.

Good afternoon World!

It’s a bit chilly and gloomy Saturday afternoon in Finland, perfect day for brainstorming, working and cleaning your apartment. I’m not letting the weather hold me down, no sir. Tonight I’m finally getting a chance to go and see the Iron Man 2. I know the movie will rock, it will be extremely difficult to be totally objective about it though. Nevertheless I’ll watch it and write a little about it later just to let you know what I think. Don’t believe everything you read in the reviews, watch the flick and decide for yourself. My only concern is that the cinema will not play the movie until the end of the credits. Yes folks, you should stay there and watch the movie until the very end for some additional material.

Greetings,

What a day. First off shout out to our very own Jeci Chao, Happy Birthday! May Day’s ain’t got nothing on May 2nd. On that note Happy Golden Week National Holidays to all of our friends in Japan! We take it as if every day’s a celebration. Life’s good, especially when the sun’s shining and the weather is clear.

Hi Y’all,

Hope your weekend has been a relaxing one. Helsinki was soaked in sunshine and we made the best of it by having a little photoshoot in celebration of the Spring season. More of that later but this edition is about my Copper Label project.

Weekend…

But that does not mean I’m having a break. Theme of the weekend, get as much done in two days as you possibly can and if there’s time, charge some batteries for next week.

In my last post I promised to publish an update on the G003-MB project. Well I’m a man of my word and this week we’ve got a set of detailed pics that show where are we at with the jeans. The Spring season has granted us a day of sunshine and what better way to take pictures than with natural sunlight. No flash required and every little detail on the denim surface will show itself. Kind of like the moonlight showed the true character of the pirates in “Pirates of the Caribbean”. But no zombie pirates here. Just worn blue jeans. Japan Blue that is.
