HOW IT WORKS

Three quiet rituals instead of a spreadsheet.

Describe it

Type “two salmon onigiri and a miso soup” or snap a photo. Hara splits the meal into foods, estimates portions and nutrition, and lets you review before anything is saved.

Watch the bowl fill

Your day lives in a ceramic bowl of miso, ramen, matcha or a board of sushi. It fills as you eat. Go past your measure and it simply overflows a little. Tomorrow begins fresh.

Eat with the season

Every five days the old calendar turns to a new micro-season, with foods at their peak and a small ink drawing to mark the moment.

72 MICRO-SEASONS · 七十二候

A year in five-day chapters.

Japan's traditional calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms and 72 shorter seasons, each named for a small change in nature. Hara follows them, so your food log keeps time with the world outside.
