I am in my mid thirties. I am becoming concerned about spots and am considering laser for spot removal. If anyone has had laser treatment at a clinic around the Bay Area, I would appreciate it if you could tell me how it went.

I would appreciate it if you could tell me about a （ Japanese ） swimming class that my child, who just turned 2.5 years old, can attend.
I am only looking for a place that offers Japanese language services and would like to know if there is a good one.
I live in Hawaii Kai, but I don't have a specific area in mind.

Have you found a swimming class in Japanese? I teach swimming in Honolulu, but at just 2.5 years old, he/she is too young to join a group class, so I would suggest a baby class where one of the parents is in the water with the child, or a private one-on-one lesson with an instructor. If the purpose of having your child learn to swim is for water safety, you can have an ISR instructor come in and teach your child to float on his/her back when in the water.

As far as I know, unfortunately, I have not heard of any swimming classes in Japanese, but I hope you can find one.

We have two Japanese-speaking intra-company acquaintances, but the classes are taught in English.

Although Hawaii is an environment where the ocean and pools are very close by, surprisingly many people cannot swim. If you are planning to send your child to a private school, some private schools in Hawaii offer PE swimming lessons, so it would be a good idea to make sure your child can swim to some extent. We recommend that you have a Japanese-speaking intranet come to your home or condo pool or, if you are temporarily back in Japan, take a short class at a Japanese swimming school to improve your swimming and Japanese skills.

For example, I can use the stove oven to bake a turkey for hours on end, but
I'm worried about using a large oven to bake a couple of slices of bread ， or a pizza for a few minutes.

Which oven would cost less electricity to bake a frozen pizza, a stove top oven or a toaster oven ？
Would my electricity bill be different if I used the convection function to make fried foods ？

What do you think? 869> What do you think ？ I would be happy if you could share ！.

I would love to know too. Since the oven has more space than the toaster, it would take longer to heat up the oven itself first. The toaster heats up in a matter of seconds, so I think this alone makes a difference in the electricity bill. We don't use a toaster in our house, but we have a two-layer upper and lower oven, the top is a regular oven but the bottom has a convection function.
The top is about one-third the size of a regular oven and the bottom is about two-thirds the space of a regular oven, so I always use the top when baking small items, but it takes less time than baking in the regular size open.
When I bake a smaller turkey or whole chicken, I also bake it on top, and it takes about half the time that the internet says, so this alone should lower your electric bill.
In my opinion, a toaster would surely be cheaper than this, but I would love to hear what others think.

Please be aware that the PSYCHIC who calls out to you in or near Beverly Center that your head is foggy is a scammer. I live on Melrose. There used to be a store on Third Street but no longer. I was told to prepare $ 500, roses and a raw egg for a ritual called exorcism and to sleep with them for a week.
A mysterious reading began saying God is listening to you. One of the questions asked me how much I had saved and told me to prepare for the next time, $ 2800, 28 years old, because I was 28 years old. I went into the store with everything recorded on my phone and investigated ahead of time.
I started to overreact to the theatrical reading and the bill was ripped in half ！ I was so surprised, then with a yelp ！ I broke a raw egg and a little black snake came out. I know it was a trick, but I couldn't figure it out the whole time I was watching. I was so surprised when the back door was slammed with more and more bangs ！ and I had to go and I was staring at the little snake coiled around the snake the whole time I was gone, but it was so vivid I couldn't really tell if it was a puppet or not. After that, I was told that the torn cache and snake would be taken to the church and the show was over. Looking back, I had no knowledge that I could take the bill I had torn in two to the bank, stick it on, and put it back together if I could use it. I felt like I had been cheated
out of a cheap theatrical show. The look on his face when I told him I only had 100 in my property $ lol I should have just collected the torn bill and left. Later, when I was shopping at the Beverly Center, a young girl approached me in the same manner with a PRADA bag and a feathered look. I asked her about it and she said your head is clouded. She said something about a guy who wasn't good for you, and I thought, "Oh, this is one of his guys. The girl must have been calling somewhere and gave him my description. Why did you listen to her in the short message? I got a message like you are my client and I knew it was a scam and I sent her a message saying you are a liar and that was the end of it. I ran into someone who got scammed around and $ paid about 3000. He said he paid but nothing happened.
I can't forgive him for trying to cheat a genuine Japanese person by putting an ad in a Japanese-American newspaper ！ I can't forgive him for being a fraudulent psychic who wears branded goods and lives a life with a cool air and looks like he has a good sense of humor.

How do you all get stickers ？ If anyone has any recommendations for this store in your area, please share the information.

I want to do composting in my yard, do you have any recommendations ？

I mainly put vegetable scraps and fruit peels.

I'm thinking of getting a rotary one, but I'm not sure. Can I keep putting them in ？ I feel like if I do, the unsoiled stuff will stay forever.

I live in OC. It seems like there are programs where you can take your food scraps somewhere or have them collected at home and get soil, but so far I have no plans to get anything back into the soil from the compost.

I use a rotary composting system, but the food scraps fill up quickly, so I bury them in the soil in my backyard.
It seems to take about 3 months to complete composting. I don't put all my food scraps in the garbage, so it fills up quickly, but other houses may not accumulate that much food scraps. I have peach, citrus, and other fruit trees at home, so I dig holes around them and bury them. The compost has a partition in the center, and there are two rooms, one for food scraps and the other for composting in progress, and it is rotated daily to circulate oxygen, but it generates flies, so now I bury it directly in the soil and let the worms break it down for fertilizer.

Thanks Sunshine ！ I knew it was worm ！！

I've been looking into this but we have limited space for a field and I was thinking it would be difficult to make a compost section in addition, but I just saw on Instagram I just found out on Instagram that Dollar Tree has a wire trash can that you can bury in the soil and put cardboard pieces and food scraps in it.

At least it doesn't cost much, so I'll give it a try ！

I see the rotary one has two layers ！ I still think burying it in the dirt might be better for me, since I don't want flies coming in.

I don't want to put it under the eaves because I have to keep it out of the rain after all, like cardboard composting 😓

Fortunately, we have worms in our small field, so I'll ask them to move out a bit from there.

I don't know why on instagram or youtube people post how they do it, but there is so little explanation of what to do and when to do it afterwards that it's hard for the layman to understand.

I have been thinking that it is a waste to throw away the banana peels and the outside of the cabbage (I always throw away 1-2 pieces) after my children eat them every day, but it is very hard to compost them.

I will look into it more ！.

I use a shovel to dig and bury a circle over 20 cm in diameter.
If I cover them with enough soil to hide the garbage and leave them alone, they will decompose before I know it, so I don't even use a box. Shells do not attract flies or insects, so even if you leave them unburied, they will eventually break apart and become fertilizer nutrients, although it will take some time in the sunlight.
All you need is a shovel and some soil, so it is economical, and the soil will become soft, so it can be used to improve the soil.

I bought a wire trash can today because I saw on instagram that if you dig a hole in a field and bury a Dollar Tree wire trash can 🗑️ and put chopped cardboard, soil and fallen leaves in it and put banana peels or something in it and cover it with soil or a lid it will become a worm compost. I bought a cover for a microwave dish because it was the perfect size for it.

I didn't cook today and ate out, so I don't have any garbage, but tomorrow morning I want to dig a hole and bury the garbage directly in the garbage can and for the garbage can.

I was wondering if I should buy a wire trash can from Amazon ＄ I'm glad I did for a little over 1. I guess the wisdom of people who are used to it is amazing in any field.

I have a daughter who wants to practice the iron bars.
Please let me know if there are any parks near Torrance where I can practice the iron bars.

I see a lot of very high bars, but I would love to find a place that is just right for children's bars.
I met a mom on the road before and she told me she practiced the bars at a park, but I forgot to ask her where.

If you know of any, please let me know ！ Thank you very much.

I am looking for a place to request a TAX return and am asking about one.
I am thinking of hiring a firm called Okihara U.S. Tax Accountant's Office, but there is no address listed on their website.
Google maps shows the Irvine area, but without a specific address, I am not sure if it is really a good idea to hire them.
Please let me know if you have requested this service before.
Thank you very much.

I googled Torrance address was the only one I could find.

Either way, some places don't list their phone numbers on their internet sites because of the risk.

If your English is not good, you can start by asking a friend or other person who speaks English to call "phone information".
