Konbanwa!
I really believe this is more like a food blog than ath.. haha. Just looking at the no. of pics of food compared to that of people.. :) Well, kinda hard not to talk abt the food here.. i'm like trying almost a different type of Jap food everyday.. Mr.. and Mrs T are trying to make sure i get to try as many as possible before i leave for Osaka.. which is in two days!!! Argh... im gonna miss them and Mihoko sensei.. and Julia.. and the food of course :)
Man, im starting to miss dancing.. was showing them some of the emix videos the other night.. made me miss it even more.. hopefully will get to dance a little at the University :)
Yest was great! We went to vist the Koshike Doll factory.. its those wooden Jap dolls? Anyway.. I tried painting one!! Had to draw out the outline based on a sample and then paint on it afterwards.. was much more difficult than it looked man.. we asked them how long itd take and they said should take abt 1-1.5 hours.. but i ended up sitting there for 3 ! haha. My right hand was almost cramping up afterwards from holding the doll still in one position the whole time...... but it was great fun! :) really enjoyed myself there..
Didnt really do much today.. just went to the dog cafe with Mrs T and Julia then went for a short swim again.. heh. Real nice diving into a warm pull when the weather outside is chilly.. Its been exceptionally cold these 2 days.. the mountain areas were snowing and there were blizzards in hokkaido.. temperatures like 1 degree in the mornings and at night.. plus the wind is extremely cold from the snow.. so when it blows.. brrrr........... the other night when i came back i was in such a hurry to change into the room slippers cos it was so cold that i put on Mr. T's ones instead.. haha. he ended up chasing after me in pink furry slippers (which theyd gotten for me) and konked me on the head laughing.. haha. :P
Anyways, dinner tonight was great! (As with almost every night.. hehe) .. We had corrokke.. the friend potato pancake thingy.. hee. And chicken stew!!
went to this little restaurant (an hours drive away) yest for this hamburger steak in tomato soup/sauce. It was oh so delicious.. meat was tender with melted mozarella on top and served with toasted bread which was so soft on the inside... when dipped into the tomato soup ... simply heavenly ........
hard at work at the doll factory.. this was the position i stayed in for 3 hours!
almost done!!
voila!! the finished product.. hehe. didnt get to lacquer it and stuff.. so it still looks pretty raw.. but still.. yay!!!
dinner tonight... - corrokke with chicken stew, cucumber and tomato salad and rice.. :)
