Crazy Japanese …

It’s POCKY! (Not Mikado or whatever)

rich — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 21:24:21 +0000

Not sure about the whole message there, but anyhow … inspired by this advert, I bought a packet. 59p per packet, and they are quite tiny compared to the real pocky. Also the milk chocolate is horrible compared to the plain chocolate pocky they sell in Japan.

Falafels

rich — Sun, 28 Sep 2008 08:22:10 +0000

I made falafels again last night. They are still falling apart a little bit during cooking so next time I’m going to try adding half an onion and frying at a higher heat.

Here is a videojug recipe for falafels. Notice that their falafels stick together. Be sure to read their comments before making this …

Meanwhile here is a ridiculously hard recipe for making your own mozzarella. You will need: 1 cow, 1 digital thermometer, 1 pH meter, rennet, a good mozzarella starter, and hours and hours of spare time.

Manic manic miner

My cousin and I actually did Manic Miner in a whole weekend using an infinite lives poke and lots of reloading. But this is just ridiculous …

I captured two of them in the garden tonight. Hopefully I can get a few more after it rains. This one was wrapped around one of N-sama’s green beans, and eating it! But he seems to like celery as well, so …
