Moe Oshikiri

TOKYO —
Model Moe Oshikiri, 29, was in Ebisu this week to show off her new creation “Tabegoro Roron Suitsu Taruto” –- a sweet tart made from a new rugby ball-shaped pumpkin produced by Takii Seeds in Kyoto.
Oshikiri came up with the idea for the new dessert which will be on sale at the Tokyo Sweets Factory near Jiyugaoka station until the end of the month. She sampled the tart on stage and said: “It’s great! It’s the perfect tart for this season.”
Oshikiri ended her four-year relationship with Yomiuri Giants pitcher Takahiko Nomaguchi, 26, in August and reporters tried to squeeze in a few questions about it as she was leaving the stage, asking her if her wounds had healed or if she had had found new love. She didn’t reply but was all smiles throughout the event, giving the impression she has moved on.

I wouldn't eat a pumpkin that was shaped like an American football.

really, what's with those boots? I think some retard fashionista thought they are cool and is promoting them, because I see many women wearing them recently. And they are HORRIBLE!

Wow! Her knees are identical to mine! We are knee-twins! Maybe I stand a chance for best knee-ist this year....? Or maybe not, based on norinrad21. Oh well.

Did someone get to actually taste the tart? Tasty?

Also, how much does this tart cost? I have to decide if it's worth the train fare to Jiyugaoka Station or not.

"tart"
Does a tart have to taste tart to be a real tart?

Moe! itadakimasu. 'No thanks' on the pumpkin tart, though.

Except for them not being white, her boots look like she just got off her shift after making ramen all afternoon.

I don't want to know how she got those knobby knees but maybe it has something to do with tarts? Oh well, it is the weekend, we can dream.
