Earth quake

11 March, We had really terrible disasters and now, we have tons of really serious ploblems which were caused by the devastating tsunami, in East Japan. I express my deepest sympathies for the disaster victims and may a lot of the victims rest in peace. And now, The only thing I can do is fund-raise. So, I collected contributions up to 55.000 yen with my husband. I hope this fund-raising will be of some help.

Yesterday...

Yesterday, I had a drinking party with my friends from my college days, because one of them visited Yokohama on business. I enjoyed the party as I hadn't seen them for a long time. And I might have got carried away, I ate some ramen at '一風堂' on the way back to home at one o'clock a.m.. I had absolutely gained weight....
This was the first time I went to eat at the shop, I didn't like that ramen very much! I can't agree that that ramen was 'Hakata tonkotsu'!!!

Today's dinner menu is healthy. ' steamed tai flavored with cherry blossom-salt', 'steamed clam using Japanese alcohol ' 'tai miso soup' and 'brown rice'.
The 'tai miso soup' tasted great good!

 Tomorrow's lunch box:

Sunday’s dinner menu is ‘beef curry’. My husband cooked it. He was sauteing onions until golden for about 1 hour. And he added sevral different types of spices in his curry. It was a wonderful taste!!!!!

 Today's dinner menu is 'beef and bamboo soots stir-fry' , 'cabbege and egg soup' and 'radish pickles'.

tomorrow's lunch box:

COSTCO

I played truant from keeping a dialy for two days...
Friday, we ate dinner at a beef  barbecue restrant, and yeasterday, we went shopping at COSTCO. We bought a lot of food such as a big cut of beef, 3kg of light and strong flour, spaghetti and some spices. There is one thing I've been wondering. A lot of people bought very expensive toilet paper at COSTCO. What are they?? What's the difference between expensive ones and normal ones?
And then, I went to a hair salon. I had my hair cut short!

Yesterday's dinner menu was 'temakizushi'. I don't eat 'normal' rice so much, but 'vinegared' rice is different...
I ate too much.....

'Makizushi in the Korean style' again

Tomorrow's lunch box is 'Makizushi in the Korean style' again! It seems my husband like this very much. This time, I wraped each of makizushi with kitchen wrap, because it was difficult to eat using chopstics.

Tomorrow's lunch box:

I can't believe it!

Some time ago, a friend of my colleague came to see my colleague. The friend gave him more than ten CDs and DVDs of ‘ AKB48 ', which is one of the most popular groups in Japan these days. My colleague's friend asked him to give them away for him. They were still covered and new release CDs. I asked my coleague for the reason behind his friend ’ s behavior.

His friend is crazy about ‘ AKB48 ’, so he bought a lot of the same CDs because he wanted to win some sort of ticket or something. He spent three hunred thousand yen on AKB48's goods over two months!! So, he gave away his remaining CDs.

I can't believe it...

Today's menu is a 'swordfish saute with lemon butter sauce', 'Bacon and asparagus spaghetti using soy milk' and 'marinated tomato and onion'.

Tomorrow's lunch box:

Nikujyaga

Today's menu is a 'nikujyaga' and 'hijiki rice' and 'miso soup' and side dishes.
I felt like I was going to burst! I ate too much!! But I should be OK because almost all of ingradients were vegetables....

I prepared a 'harumaki' from leftover 'nikujyaga' for tomorrow's lunch box. I hope it's delicious.
