WASHLET promotional button and map

A Washlet billboard made local headlines when it depicted numerous bare rear ends each with a happy face smile superimposed on it. Washlet's motto is "clean is happy". What is Washlet? it is a toilet seat that has 2 features, a "wand" that sprays water, and a warm air dryer. Sounds useful if you like that sort of thing. Washlets are on display in various showrooms, as shown on the map included in the handout. Anyway, I like the smiley face buttons they handed out (with no graphic of a rear end!).

BALANCE BARE "nutrition energy bar" Sweet & Salty Yogurt Nut

On this particular day, I was really hungry but didn't have time to grab a snack. So this "nutrition energy bar" really hit the spot. The sweet & salty made the bar very snack-like in taste, while still eating something relatively healthy. I usually keep some kind of granola bar in my purse in case I ever get hungry, and these Balance Bare bars are very handy, they are a substantial size, somewhat hold their shape, and come in a durable wrapper.
