Things that I ate recently

I went eating Cold Stone Ice Cream, Germanchokolatekake, that is so good. I have already ate "Bery Bery Bery Good", "Chocolate Devotion", "Mud Pie Mojo", and "Strawberry Banana Rendezvous". Strawberry Banana Rendezvous is best in Cold Stone Ice Cream I ate. I think strawberry and banana are king of combination in all fruits. Anyway, why I chose Germanchokolatekake I love combination of chocolate and coconut.

This is potato chips that I found at Famima!! When I saw this, this was in my hand. This chip is pretty good because these chips are a bit thicker than usual chips and are not so salty, besides there is taste on themselves. If you find this, I recommend to try.

Baking

I'm baking a lot these days!! ^-^
I'm really enjoying my summer vacation!!

Today, I made this. This name is "Berry Good Roll".

I really like berry. Strawberry, Blueberry, Blackberry...(´∀`*)
I wanted eat berry bread but I could find blueberry bagel or something like that. I could not find blueberry roll bread.
I thought how can I make it. I don't have a mold for bread so I decided to use a mold for cupcake. It look cute, though♪

I also made this berry source. This is really really good!!
I will add yogurt or pancake or...*^-^*yummy♪

This source is used Strawberry, Blueberry, and Blackberry. This is so gorgeous and rich!
I used this recipe → http://trc.cocolog-nifty.com/kentaro/2004/11/post_1.html

This is so easy. You take only 10 minutes!!
You should try this. ^-^

I also baked simple one. These didn't anything.
These are so good, though. I can not buy anymore. lol

This is first time to bake bread but it was fun. I will bake again with different recipe. I would like to bake hard one.^-^

Party

This is Chirasi-Sushi which I made for party 2 weeks ago.

"Chirasi" means to spread.
Inside is rice which is mixed carrots, mushrooms, dried gourd shavings, lotus roots, and bamboo shoot.
Top is eggs which is boiled and cut very thin, shrimps, field peas, and seaweeds.
You can add whatever you want, though.

This is made for a party or a good day in Japan.


And I went a Birthday party tomorrow.

Happy Birthday Yoon!!
Yoon is my one of the best friends. *^-^*
He is kind of my father♪

I gave him a candle stand.
He appreciated it.
It is my pleaser☆

Actually, I went a birthday party today, too.

Americans like to hold a party.
They talk a lot!!
It is surprising me. I mean it is for Japanese.
We do not talk a lot like Americans.
I want to be like guys, though.
I want to talk a lot like Americans.

I'll be fine!!

Cheap!


I bought this at 99¢shop.

Moreover this was sold a set of 4!!
It's amazing price, isn't it?

When I first see it, I could stand to buy it.
But I could not stand to buy it second time... (´-`;

It was sometime lunch or sometime dinner...
I enjoyed to eat.
If I ate it as a snack, I'm gonna be fat.

I want to eat like a soft cinnamon roll(´∀`人)

Matomaes Pasta with Japanese Style


Today was so hot!!

Actually... it wasn't.
Today was so strong wind, so it was chilly.

While I was in my room, I could see strange tree which waved a lot!!
I choose that I did not go out at day time.

During seeing the view, I ate this.
It was good!
I used white-stock and a bit soy source.
..... actually, I did not have any dressing I can use in this kind of pasta.


I have blue cheese dressings and a balsamic vinegar.
I did not use these, so I got a idea!

I can make my dressing!

I wanted to eat something which make me refresh.
That's why, I seasoned like that.

I did not do special things in this time.
Tomatoes and onions were cooked by a microwave.
... so easy (´∀`;


What I did today, I went conversation cafe!!
It is been a long time.

I was afraid of it because I worry about my skill of speaking English.
I don't have opportunity to speak English in school.

However, it became a great time!
I really had a good time.
In conversation, we decide some topics.
And then, we talk about it.
when we talked about a topic, my opinion and my favorite teacher fitted!
I was excited about it *^-^*

It is difficult to make myself understood to someone in my poor English.
However, I can get fabulous feelings when my thoughts or opinions are understood.

I think that I want to study more English whenever I get kinds of the feeling!

Peperoncino Style Salad of SPAM and Gnocchi


This is first menu in which I use SPAM!

In this time, I fried Gnocchi by olive oil and garlic.
It was so nice idea!!
I love it *^-^*
This Gnocchi was season with only garlic and pepper.
However it was enough salty to be good taste because SPAM has a lot of salt.

I thought Peperoncino is one of the most unhealthy meals!
I guess that ingredients of peperoncino are oil, garlic, red pepper, and pasta.

............That's all!!

This is kind of "health" food.
When you eat it, you had better eat salad with it!

Then, I am on spring break.
But you know what all my classes have a test after spring break!!
Oh my gad!!
I have to study for it....

........Let's do it (/_;)

1. Heat 2 tbsp oil in a flying pan, add minced garlic and bacon, then cook over low-medium heat until smelling garlic.

PASTA


After I went to Korean market, there is a lot of vegetable in refrigerator.
In the vegetable, easiest to go bad a thing is LETTUCE!!

I like it, anyway.(´∀`*)

←This salad is easy to make and looks so gorgeous!




1. Cut a lettuce in half.
2. Pour a dressing whatever you like.
3. Sprinkle a flied bacon and garlic on the top of the lettuce.

It's done!!

I am sure that it is good taste!! I am!!

My recommendatory combination of dressing is balsamic vinegar and sesame oil!!

It's delicious!
Please try it!


Next, I added lettuce to pasta!

Maybe, I referred to this web site. →飲食店では教えてくれない ナイショのレシピ 「レタスのパスタ」 (Nobody know secret recipe in restaurant 「lettuce pasta」)

This site is interesting.

I used dry red pepper in this time.
Actually, it was first time for me, so I doubted if it made pasta hot.
...It did.

I liked it.
Besides, I moved to find ability of lettuce☆

If you have never done it before, try it!

This is my denner♪

I guess this picture is different from recipe one...
because of farfalle. (I hope so.)

It smell soy sauce is good!
I loved it!
