My bento box, first bento, sushi and package from Japan!♪
Hey there!! 
Yesterday I received my last package from Japan. I was totally surprised, because I told Yumi-chan´s mom that I don´t need it right now and they can send it by ship. This way it´s also cheaper, but NOOOO they send it to me last week and now it´s HERE!!!
It was a really nice surprise and I was TOTALLY happy!
The content of this package was:
(Japanese snacks, my Japan guidebook, some mangas I bought, my bento box, cd with photos)
Which means I now have finally ALL of my Japan photos.
Currently counting: 5033 photos!!! (O______O'''') .......................
..... of course I´m not going to post them ALL XDDDDD but the best ones of course ... but perhaps you may understand now why I´m so busy XDDD
It takes time to sort them and stuff ... not to mention to post them and write entries about so many photos and memories, nee???
As you can see I also got Japanese snacks. Yumi-chan´s family knows that I totally love senbei and the likes!!!! WAAAAH happy~~~ (^______^)V
And this is my new bento box. I wanted to buy it the last night before I left Japan, but it was sold out. So Yumi-chan said she would buy it for me and send it to me the next week and she did!!!!
AAAAhhhh~ I´m soooo happy~ ^______^
Yumi-chan also included a cute tegami and some photos which we took together (yah, yah everything will follow XDDDD;; ....)
Of course I´ll soon send a thank you package to Yumi-chan´s family with some gifts from Germany ^-^; .. I hope she will like it <3333333
Okay .... my rice cooker´s coming prolly tomorrow (yahooo~). As I said in one of my previous entries I´d totally love Japanese bentos that I bought at the combinis. So I wanted to start and make Japanese food and bento myself.
I already made onigiri and sushi from time to time (see here).
So first thing I did was .... SHOPPING in an Asia shop. Unfortunately we only have a very small one near here and it´s VEEEEERY expensive. .... And now knowing how CHEAP everything is in Japan makes it even worse .... but what can you do? *sigh* (T___T) ......
Okay, so here´s what I bought:
New chopsticks (^^;;) ... I already have enough, but I thought they were cute (and can you have enough chopsticks??? XDDDD;;; .. *coughs*)
Finally, FINALLY a sharp (Japanese!!!) knife!!! It was not cheap, but it´s SHARP!!!!!!! My problem with sushi was always not having a sharp knife to cut the rolls properly. Now it´s finally easy ^-^V
Soba and Somen.
I loved cold Soba with Nori and soy sauce in Japan, so now I can eat it at home as well ^-^
I´ve never tried Somen though. But in my cookbook there are some recipes with somen (^-^)V
Dashi and Wakame ... also needed for various Japanese meals ^-^;
ARGH!!!!! I totally loved these in Japan. More about it later!! ^-^ ... I need your help with these!!!! (;___;) I suck pretty much I guess. But more later *coughs*
Smoked salmon and ebi-like thingies for sushi ^-^;;;;;
3 different Furikake, onigiri molds and sensha which I bought in Ameyoko, Ueno, Tokyo directly (^-^)V
(I should have bought more x___X ....)
TADAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA~ and look what I´ve found in that Asia shop: YAHOOOO now I can make my most fav breakfast ever! -> Ochazuke <333333
Yumi-chan´s mother made it for me and I loved it. This is the one I ate:
Making sushi again:
Cucumber ^-^
Sesame. I have a question. I somewhere read these are ready when they start to jump in your pan.
Mine won´t jump, they just get burned and black if I wait too long, any tips for me? (T_____T) ....... *sigh*
And it´s ready:
Yah not perfect. Some of them weren´t holding together properly, but ... at least they tasted like they should ^-^;;
I used those ebi-like thingies, cucumber and tamago ^-^V
The first bento I ever made (today! XDD):
First of all I have to say that I didn´t have much time today and furthermore I still don´t have a rice cooker, so I was really in a hurry XDDD;
But I think it was at least eatable and it was fun making it ^______^ (and eating it)
Hard boiled egg with salt and cylindric onigiri
Triangle shaped onigiri with sesam seeds + inarizushi (sweet tofu bags filled with rice)
And here comes the problem. It was soooooooooooooooooooo hard to split those bags without destroying the thin skin of it. How do you guys do it? Any hints????
I really suck big time I guess ;_____; ...... but I totally love these!!!!!!
I also eat them a lot in bentos in Japan. This is one of those bentos I ate:
Well anyway on with my bento box:
Star and heart apple slices.
What is your way of conserving it? I used some drops of lemon-juice.
And Haribo (gummi bear etc.) plus one Mozartkugel ^-^;;
Everything packed and ready.
Okay, enough about food.
I´ve finally reached the end of First Kiss and Yamada Taro. Only one episode to go with each series.
I watched ep9 of Yamada Taro in Japan together with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
hesaki. Watching it with subs now, I realized that I understood more than I thought XDDD;;;
I´ve also finally watched the movie Dororo. I liked it really much and Tsumabuki PLUS EITA ... what else should I say? (^-^)V
I also watched the movie Shinobi ^____^;; .... this one was really sad somehow .... (spoiler ahead): and GEEZ Erika you really like to die everywhere, right? (-_____-''') ... sorry I guess when it comes to Erika it´s no spoiler anymore, because she does it EVERY SINGLE TIME!!! (O__O'') .... *headdesk*
I finished Liar Game .. FINALLY .. geez the subs took really long, nee? Especially considering that more than half of the episode was repetition, nee?
I didn´t really like this last episode .... I expected more than that, but all in all I really enjoyed this series and I loved the OST! ... and of course I love Toda Erika and MatsuShota ^^
Besides Yamada Taro, First Kiss, Hanakimi and Sushi Oji I´ve now started to watch an "older" drama: Himitsu no Hanazono (ヒミツの花園)
Without knowing what it´s about I picked it by chance and I REALLY enjoy watching it. It´s very entertaining ^____^ .... and a LOT of actors I didn´t know before (^-^;;)
...... and I´m of course watching loooooooooooooooooooooooooooots of Toma stuff and old shounen club stuff etc. ^^;;; .... aaaaaa~ I need a 70hours day or s.th. like that XDDDD .. *coughs*
One last thing I found by chance an hour ago:
J stars are only looking good thanks to the cosmetic surgeons!!!! XD
Errrm. Guess that´s it for today ^-^ *runs away*
