I got myself breakfast, INCLUDING saying "take out" in Japanese, and I even managed to ask for the NAME of what it was I was eating! (Pointing to pictures on a laminated menu card is a wonderful thing.)

I have been eating kuroku mushu - croque monsieur. :)

Tomorrow morning, I'll ask for it correctly instead of by pointing! Wheeeee!

Aren't they great? Best part: they're written in an entirely different alphabet, so you know exactly which stuff to try to decode first!
