Midomi & Nabe

[excused_early]

Thank you so much for all the heart-warming comments to my sissy and depressing post yesterday. I know it's not easy to comment on a post like that (and for the third time! ^^;;;;;), so I really really really appreciated each one of them. <3333333

Well, I'm feeling like my usual upbeat self today ^^, so I'm posting about something FUN. ^_~

Will you make me some? It looks so tasty! *smacks lips*

[excused_early]

Oh sure, come on over!! =D

[excused_early]

LOL
That's right. There's technically no way to screw it up... XD

When I make it on my own, the nabe is 80 - 90% veggies. I love it!^^

That looks yummy! *jealous*

Also, it's no problem to respond to posts like your sad ones because you are always kind enough to do the same for others!

*edit* lolol...is the link to midomi your way of poking at me to get myself a mic for my computer so you can hear me? /ego

I'm just kidding, but it does look like fun...maybe on Monday when I go shopping with my mom I can find something...

[excused_early]

Awwww. Thanks for saying that about the Daisy post. I'm sending you a bowl of nabe your way. ^_~

You know, the midomi link is actually coincidental because I've been thinking about posting it for some time, although the "timing" of it probably does have to do with me wanting to hear you sing. XP

But, yeah, it's kinda fun.^^

Wow, that website looks awesome. i'm totally going to play with it for hours on end. Lol.

And wow, that looks great! What kind of veggies do you usually use? I see carrots and.. zucchini, is it? Whatever it is, I bet it tasted super yummy. ^^

I had tofu for the first time this year, I think... and it actually wasn't bad. The texture was a bit strange, though. And hard to explain, too. I kind of want some now. Lol.

[excused_early]

It's fun right? LOL

As for the veggies, I use nappa, green onions, sweet onions, zucchinis, spinach, carrots, daikon (Japanese raddish) if I have some, ground ginger, shiitake mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, etc. ^^

You know, tofu that's sold here doesn't taste nearly as good as tofu you can get in Japan, so it's better to eat them with something else to give it flavor ^^ (We often eat tofu only with soy sauce and a little bit of ginger in Japan).
But I'm glad you liked it OK. It's very healthy after all. ^_~

Yummilicious! *slurps*

I love Nabe. I call it it "guilt-free" eating because all the ingredients are just boiled. Heh heh... =P
I used to eat it with udon but I have since replaced it with noodles made from konnyaku.

[excused_early]

"guilt-free eating" Yeah, exactly! XD
I eat a lot of nabe because I know it's healthy and not fattening! I used to eat it with a lot of rice, but since I stopped eating rice, I'm eating even more nabe itself. LOL

Right, we often put udon in the pot at the very end, when the nabe's content's pretty much gone except the soup, and cook them in the soup. It's delicious, isn't it?
I also use noodles made from konnyaku.^^ We call them shirataki.
