Mmmm Pocky

Some of my Asian Food Grocer care package here – I’m sure you’re all familiar with Glico Pocky by now, and I’m a fanatic about it. My favorite is Peach Decorer(sp?) pocky, but I’ve recently gotten to try Green Tea pocky and it was delicimous! I’ve had the regular sized kind, but not the decorer, and I’ve got some pics :D :

I’m off like a dirty shirt, that miso won’t make itself!

Treat!

Ooh, I just had my very first strawberry Yogu Time, and I have to say I’m pleasantly surprised! I’m so so with fakey strawberry flavors, much preferring the real thing, but this was sooo good. I usually just buy white peach Yogu Time, because I’m a peach fanatic and I know what I like ( peach Ramune is to die for ), but this time Laota and I decided to order extra Yogu to sample a new flavor and as it turns out it tastes a lot like strawberry frozen yogurt, which I highly recommend. I think next we’ll be sampling melon and maybe lychee? Any recommendations?

Strawberry Yogu Time

I usually shop at the ultra cheap and ultra fabulous Asian Food Grocer when I’m not on eBay or getting care packages from my Japanese friends, but any Asian web store recommendations that serve up treats like unagi ( I love me some eel, so yes I refer to it as a treat! ), Yogu, Ramune, Pocky, Hi-Chew, ect. are more than welcome, and anything I buy from those stores I’ll make sure to mention on the blog. If you have an affiliate link, and you’ll get paid if I shop there, go ahead and link me up! I’d be happy to drop a few bucks in your pocket for helping me out. :)

Unagi Bento

Yes! I finally got my database fixed, and the missing posts are now up – it took me forever to find the damn thing, because I thought it was on the laptop and surprise, it was on the desktop so I wasted my time.

But I do have a new bento, here’s one picture and the others are over at Catch Me Kiss Again:

Top level has mashed sweet potato with sakura-shaped tater pieces, unagi in soy with a little fish shaped bottle of soy sauce. In the bottom level calrose with speckles of furikake ( sesame ) and a ginger, turkey and nori flower plus a bunch of steamed broccoli. Yum!

Bento Gadget

Well, I haven’t had time to post the results of my bento egg cooker but I promise to do so this month – right now I’m saving up for a brand new digital camera so I won’t be posting too, too many pictures until then and the majority will likely be on CatchMeKissAgain.com and posted here at Hanamachi Lights as sort of an afterthought. I did get a new bento wrap, gingham with Hello Kitty on it, and when I have a minute I’ll take a few pictures to share with you. :)
