My favourate Japanese dishes

This will be my last post from Kagawa, Japan.

Its 2:30 am (Friday morning) am still up doing bites and pieces of packing and rechecking for the trip tonight. Before that around 12 mid night i had these:

This is my favourate Japanese dish, Sashimi with wasabi and the famous Kikoman sauce. Yes, they are raw and yummy too. Well, 12 midnight! what would i say? Dinner, breaky or mid-nightlunch….lol… don’t know. Oh! maybe “excited-hunger”. :mr green:

These are some Japanese dishes i love:
Sushi with marinated ginger on decoration. Raw fish over the rice (specially prepared). Gently dip it into the sauce and then shove all of it into your mouth….yummy. Thats how they do it here. Then slowly munch it absorbing all the taste.

Yes! Oshi-so ne minna-san. All raw sea food. Yes, i had the pleasure of eating almost all of it, and boy did it go down well with Asahi biru.

And more Japanese dish. The white silver tray with dark green strip is Onigiri. That is my son ToTut’s favourate. The green strip is the dried sea weed or Nori in Japanese.

Now that i have shown you some of my favourate Japanese dishes, why don’t you go find a Japanese restaraunt.

another Typhoon

Last night we were invited for dinner at ToTut’s friends house. They informed us that another powerful Typhoon is heading towards Kyushu and Shikoku (its here already). Kagawa is on the island of Shikoku. They were worried cos our trip to Tokyo will start tomorrow night.

Gosh! another Typhoon! Just three weeks ago Japan was hit by the most powerful Typhoon in decades. Typhoon Man-yi killed three people and leaving thousands homeless. It came over Kagawa, caused some damaged and left people homeless too. Thank heavens i still have the roof intact. At one stage i thought the roof was torn apart.

Am hoping the Typhoon will pass by the time we arrive in Tokyo. Some reports have aired that some flights have been cancelled in Kyushu. Now, we are bound for home sweet home on saturday night. I just hope the wheather will be on our side by the time we reach Tokyo. Well, hope the Typhoon does not go to Tokyo.

As am typing, there’s rain, strong winds and unfamiliar sounds outside. There’s rattling noises every where. The trees are swaying from side to side, i hear no roaring noise. All the sounds are drowning in the wind and rain. The storm is strong, but not as strong as the last one.

Am sure all will be well tomorrow.

Entry for 30th July

Oops sovey! sorry! i have been very busy this week. Packing & shifting, here and there! there and here! Am not sure if this will be my last post from Kagawa, Japan. Yes, the long awaited trip is just two days away.

I can’t wait to go home. Home sweet home awaits us. Calling our names, whispering even. I thought they did. I was only dreaming. If only dreams were real. Would the world be different. I don’t think so. The world would be less interesting. Seems so real, but it was just a dream. Only a dream. Minds playing about. Generating some thoughts thought for the trip. How I will wait, not so long away i feel it. Soon, very soon it’s here already.

entry for July 28th

And so its Saturday…..like this time next week i will be in Tokyo. Am having mixed emotions as the days are nearing. Should i be happy, sad, excited…i honestly don’t know this unfamiliar feelings.
But it is good for me, for us, the future.

ToTut is out again, am relaxing with the ac full speed… the packings? well we are half way there.
We have dinner tonight with ToTut’s best friends… adult best friends. Well, he has no friends his age. I think the only time he plays with kids his age are when we go to Ehime for weekends and holidays with family friends. No wounder he acts like adult most times. We have been shifting things here and there for the last few days… its so tiring.

Am not sure if this is my last post from Kagawa, Japan. If tomorrow (Sunday) permits you’ll see some thing up. Otherwise sayounara.

Just Me

I have the empty house all to myself. It’s so quite with my boys out on their seperate dates. ToTut left the house with his adult friends at 2pm, Rod got picked up at 5pm….and ME..well i have decided to stay back and enjoy some quite time on my own. I wont be expecting eaither of them till around 10pm…well ToTut gets dropped off around this time.

There’s this elderly Japanese couple that love ToTut and his baby charms. And they have asked if they can babysit Totut some times. Well ToTut has been to their home many times…his probably having a good time tonight.

oh! well…i feel so bored with out ToTut. Am so used to hearing all his noises that when he’s out it just feels so strange.
