Food and another Sale

20 May, the entire 大学通り (our Main street) had a recycle Garage sale. Bigger than the last one I went to! I was sooo overwhelm by the choices that I ended up not buying anything because of hesitation! oh well! Ker Wee ended buying a coffee press, Derya bought bags, and I wasn't sure what Pranamita bought!














Last Friday, Tanaka-sensei treated everyone to Mister Donuts Japanese style! Very interesting. If you look at the picture, it looks like a dry biscuit, but was actually tasty and moist!
Toad would have guessed what flavor I chose!
Plain! hehe! There was chocolate, chocolate glazed and plain! It noticed that everytime I eat sugar, I immediately warm up, almost becoming hyper! So I chose plain! hehe!

On another note, Natsuka brought another interesting おかしい. Johann was looking for unusual packaging. This looks like one!

It is red bean jelly with a chestnut and in the past placed in a bamboo, but given that bamboo cannot protect food from germs efficiently, they resorted to packing in in a plastic case shaped like a bamboo! Interesting!


I think the name is Azumi, or something! I got to write these things down!

Just an update on the Manga I have:

華中華(ハナチャハン)- all about cooking fried rice!
おかわり飯蔵(はんぞう)- one of my current faves! has recipes in it!
キングスウキーツ(King of Sweets of the Universe) - dessert manga!
喰いダン(Case Files of the Gourmand Detective) - also my fave, about a detective who solves mysteries while eating. Reminds me of Jughead!

To answer Toad's comment on the Kimono, I am not sure as well. It is probably the material since the other's material is made of silk, while mine is a rough fabric. Also the design, but I'm not too sure!

Well, it is good to be discerning despite the tempting bargains. ^_^

The faux bamboo containers look cute. There's even a little notch so it's not perfectly round. hehe

Those cooking manga sound interesting. There's lots of live j-doramas also centered on cooking, btw. =)
