仕事が終わって、夕食の下準備をして、しばしの休憩です。

I wasn't really sure that this whole blog thing would be my kind of thing, but I actually find it to be...a rather nice way of communicating my thoughts to, well, myself.

I guess for me this blog is mostly for self-satisfaction, since I haven't really told any of my friends about how I secretly went behind their backs and created one, even though I've made so much fun of them.

It's also a nice way to keep track of your life and see how you mature through the selection of words, countless expressions and fancy idioms.

Anyway, I was too lazy to post more pictures last night, so I'm going to go ahead and upload some more.

$What's for lunch today, honey?

Ever since I started living away from home, I've realized how important it is to eat nutritious meals. You don't really think twice about it when you live with your parents, but you come to realize that when you slack off from making healthy food, somehow your body doesn't function as well as you would like it to. I'm now consciously trying to make "healthy" eating choices, eating brown rice, vegetables, soy beans, and fish.

For this lunchbox, I broiled some fish, made okra and potato salad, then sauteed mushrooms with this crab flavored fish paste that is popular in Japan. It's called "kanikamaboko," literally crab fish paste. It may sound disgusting to some, but never say never until you've tried it!
