@americana-reboot left me an encouraging comment on one of my recent posts about wanting to be a better dad. As the brief conversation unfolded, he revealed to me that he was a "military brat" who had lived on a military base near Tokyo for seven years. He told me he really enjoyed drinking Chu-hi's at the time, and sent me some Steem so I could have one on him. That's just what I did.

I hope you'll enjoy this little salute to a fellow Steemian whose comment made my day, and also some random shots taken from here and there.

KANPAI~!!!

Thanks, @americana-reboot.

Suffering is not holding you. You are holding suffering. That's what they say, anyway.

The love of my life, keeping it real in the kitchen.
