Balut makes its way to Las Vegas
I have been living alone in a flat with no cable TV for more than a year now, and I felt deprived of all my favorite TV shows. So after Schatz and I hoarded DVDs from Odeon (I must have bought more than 20 TV series!), I spent the entire Sunday catching...
Bento #33: Hello Kitty onigiri bento
Originally uploaded by catchan1980 Have been busy for the past weeks, and never had time for anything else online aside from Japinoy. Obviously, I still make bentos to take to work, and never fail to photograph each one. Now, I am trying to catch up...
Bento #32: Spaghetti Napolitan
Originally uploaded by catchan1980 My first time to make Spaghetti Napolitan. This is something I posted in Japinoy.com, after watching Kuitan season 2: Did you know that the Spaghetti Napolitan is 100% Japanese? Yep, not from Italy or from anywhere else, but invented in...
Bento # 31: Sardine spaghetti and longganisa bento
Originally uploaded by catchan1980 As a pasta lover, I have been experimenting with various sauces for pasta. Red only, of course (not a fan of white). One very simple recipe I found in the net called for sardines in tomato sauce. I happened to have...
Another GyakuSai pic
Here is another Gyakuten Saiban pic I accidentally found while browsing through the net. From left: Lotta, Phoenix, Edgeworth, Gumshoe, Larry Butz and Maya. Of this lot, I liked Larry the most, because the resemblance is good. I didn’t recognize Lotta at all. I thought...
I am what Dr. Ishihara says I am
Around May 2008, I got accepted into my dream company, and I had to undergo a pre-employment exam. At the clinic, the successive tests were going smoothly and I thought I would be out of there in no time. Then I got to a nurse...
Bento #30: Happy bear obento
For lack of a better title 😀 Lately, I’ve been trying to distance myself from cutesy obento — just to make my lunch more “age-appropriate”, so to speak. However, sometimes, I really can’t help it. Old habits die hard, I guess…and the habit might not...
Freezing in Tagaytay
Schatz and I were finally able to on another vacation together, after a very long time. I think the last vacation we had was in…2006, when we went to Puerto Galera (incidentally, the same time as the Wowowee incident). After that, our schedules got crazy...
To “handouts” or not to “handouts”?
That is sometimes not the question in my school. I heard from one of my former students about the use of handouts in our Japanese school. Basically, we give out handouts containing supplementary exercises and other notes not in the books (like Mojica-sensei’s keigo and...
Will the real baby carrot please stand up?
I love browsing through the internet for bento pictures — they always inspire me to keep on creating nice bentos. One thing I noticed about bentos made by Americans is that they always have baby carrots in their bentos. In whatever form: steamed, boiled, raw....
I love the Bellytwins!
Note: This post contains affiliate links. I’ve been buscando for a low-impact workout that I can do at home — I don’t have time to go to the gym, and I certainly wouldn’t want to pay for that. Also, I want something that won’t hurt...
