The C pic is disquieting bc I can't tell what's going on o.o shadow play? But who's the dead person?
|
Aren't they making rice cakes or something?
|
Now you mention it, it does look like a mortal and pestle. Thanks for alleviating the disquietitude :p-cute:
|
They're prolly pounding out mochi, which is a traditional New Year's activity in Japan.
|
Wasnt that what i just said?
|
so how is everybody doing today?
|
Good just good, have had a hearty meal and will probably watch a nice movie and eat candy later.
|
nice, i had boiled beef with crackers and cheese XD
|
The way you say that makes it more sound like snacks than a proper meal.
|
We've had a very emotional day with too many presents. We're just about to have dinner (hog roast with sweet potato fries and sprouts) ^_^
|
the way i ate it was more like snacks XD left all the veg in the pot took no broth
|
what sort of sprouts?
|
Brussel sprouts ^_^ I love them but my partner hates them XD
|
have they had them cored and roasted? those are usually a win even with the anti-brussels crowd XD
|
I don't think he has. I'll have to give that a try. ^_^
|
what do you mean cored?
and i usually light boil the brussel sprouts and then fry them with a bit sugar and lots of curry. |
it means removing the core so that it is gone. the core has the bitter part of the brussel and why it smells funky XD it is much more palatable when it is removed
|
It doesnt smell or taste much different than most other cabbage.
Normal cabbage usually smells much more. Besides removing the core of something that small just seems silly. |
OMG guys! My partner just proposed!!!
|
-shrugs- it's like taking the skin off of a kiwi or grape, small but done often enough
congrats! |
Why would you remove the skin from kiwis or grapes? It seems unnecessary except if the kiwi isnt quite ripe then the skin can be a bit too sour.
COngratz Awen |
the texture is unappealing or else the skin is culturally seen as 'gross' XD technically you can eat all of an orange but the pith and seeds but people still peel those
|
Well its much ticker and harder but even if you dont eat orange peels directly you still use it for stuff like to give extra taste to cakes or in marmalade.
|
Congratulations, Awen!!!
I just slice my Brussels sprouts in half, toss 'em with some olive oil, then sprinkle a bit of salt and pepper on 'em before roasting 'em in the oven (350F for about 15 minutes). Simple, and they taste phenomenal |
Maybe i should try that next time but my mom probably wouldnt eat that since she wants all her cabbage boiled because otherwise she become ill, btw what is that in celsius?
|
Thank you everyone <3 We've been together for nearly 6 years and I was beginning to think it would never happen ^_^;;
I prefer my sprouts steamed if I have a choice in the matter. |
but you don't eat them entirely whole do you? like biting into an apple?
|
Well if you were getting impatient you could always have proposed yourself at an earlier point in time?
I eat apples and pears entirely except the twig that sticks out on top. |
They are only small... Although I am surprised my daughter like sprouts too ^_^
|
I wasn't exactly getting impatient, I just didn't think he would as neither of us are particularly religious...
|
Proposing is religious? Really?
|
Marriage is religious and not something we've ever seriously thought about, but I guess I shall have to look into things somewhat more now. And start saving... ^_^;;
|
Well couldn't marriages be purely legal and not religious?
Yeah weddings are ridiculously expensive xP |
They can be, but they tend to be in quite grotty council buildings, and we cannot afford to wed at the moment. I'm hoping my business will take off more in the next year so I am able to save for a wedding I want rather than just one I could afford without getting into debt.
|
What color dress are you gonna wear? Classical white?
|
i will take that as you not eating entire oranges skin and all at one time XD
if you have not really thought about it then does that mean it was not really much of a wait? XD |
I'm actually going to wear traditional wedding kimono. I already have everything to wear that in my collection already and it gives me the perfect excuse to finally wear it, even if it is just the once. ^_^;;
It was and it wasn't... Time just seems to have flown ^_^;; |

Best of luck to you, Anwen. May you and your partner have many happy decades together :) |
Oh a kimono? Thats cool. I wish i had some interesting clothes but it's just normal boring old stuff.
