Wednesday 22 Feb 2006 . Katsudon!



















Finally was able to make my very own katsudon (albeit with schnitzel) with my very own rice! Had been eating noodles 'cause I didn't have a rice cooker...Dina's rice cooker was heaven sent...fresh piping hot rice never made me miss home as much as now...thousands of miles from home...and cold...

Saturday 18 Feb 2006 . Mushrooms!



















Many sought inspiration from the ceiling...
