You know how December is all about mince pies, and the run-up to Easter is all about hot cross buns?

There should be a special baked treat for every month in the year. Why isn't there? Why am I not enjoying a delicious April Cake or Spring Bun or whatever?

@RolloTreadway just say you want to Japan, where each microseason has its own marketing team... April is for sakura mochi and sakura beer

Any tips for dealing with hayfever in Japan? The over-the-counter claritin does... zero. I was hoping it might pass in a week or so, but I remain a goopy mess.

I could... visit the doctor... but that seems like a lot of hassle compared to just asking everyone on mastodon 😉

(Japan medicine tends to be different brands, and often weaker, than the overseas counterpart. I know what I could get in the UK or US, but unsure if there's anything reasonably effective in Japan.)

@elizabethtasker Interesting. I was prescribed ストナリニS more than a decade ago and I never even considered looking for something else lol
I am unhappy with how dry it makes my nose though. Let me know if you still like this one in a few days, I could give it a try!

A hint? Or a threat? 🤔 #NorahNeko
