After reading The Maker of Balloons (Water Balloons that is) on PingMag, I wanted to learn more about this Japanese Summer tradition.
By some twist of fate, I landed instead on Tokyo Mango, one of the voices of Lisa Katayama.
She recently published Urawaza (Chronicle Books) where she shares some everyday Japanese tips and tricks such as "Can't find someone to water your plants while you're away? Place the plant on a water-soaked diaper, so it slowly absorbs water over time."...
Follow that trend...What are your secret tips?
