The writer loves bread and can't walk past a good bakery, so this time it was Tomoru again!!

After trying many kinds of bread, the taste and texture won the writer over, so they drop in on the way home from work or on weekends. For a family birthday this time, they bought a fresh cream roll instead of a cake, haha
