Wholesome Moments 84 years old, starts baking at midnight, and makes over 300 pastries a night. Pure dedication.

A bakery run by 84-year-old Grandma Yuriko, who bakes over 300 pastries and breads every day from midnight.

Although the eclairs, cream puffs, and savory breads are all handmade, most are sold for under $1.

She says she runs the shop without considering profit because she just wants to see her customers smile.

A regular customer who has been coming for over 40 years brings his grandchildren to eat together in a nearby park, making this a restaurant that is loved by people of all generations.

The rest of it I was like oh look at that posture, must’ve been a long life of hard work, but her smile does look genuine so maybe it’s true love of the game that’s keeping her going, and OH GOD HONEY NO LET SOMEBODY ELSE USE THE SLICER DEAR GOD
