DR Hisaka - Nice pictures of the bento boxes.

domo arigato gozaimasu

I eat sushi regularly, and from the number of sushi places in LA alone, I'm sure there are more Americans that like it than just me.  -And there are some really good sushi restaurants in the Washington, DC area too.

And New York has some wonderful kaiseki and yakitori restaurants too.

I also like other Japanese foods... the various dumplings, grilled items (especially negimaki), katsu donburi, etc.

Oh... Some of the Japanese restaurants here are starting to offer the option of ordering your grilled chicken "medium rare", partially cooked.  Is that a true Japanese option?  And I've been to one place that had "chicken sashimi" on their menu.  -Although, apparently, it's doused in boiling water right before it's brought to your table.  Hmmm...

Of course, there's also sake... Oh, and shoju!

OH.... And whenever I am in New York, I usually stop by Minamoto Kitchoan for some wagashi.

Wonderful pictures DRLaura!

I got back from Forever Plaid and I will freely admit that it was quite wonderful.  All four performers were strong singers.  The music director (who played one of the characters, also) didn't disappoint in regards to the "blending" issue that I mentioned earlier.  They all sang out, Louise (a Gypsy reference) but since all four sang out, it wasn't too bad, after all.  They did sing quietly, when appropriate.  Overall, quite the enjoyable production.

George, what theater did FOREVER PLAID (and who was the music director)?

Lovely photos DRLAURA.

Oh I went ahead and ordered the MICKEY MOUSE CLUB WD TREASURES.  Thanks for the info MATTH....and while I was at it, I got the SE A NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS because I didn't have it.

I think I will get the new MARY POPPINS, I only have it on VHS.  A Cast member died in 1977?  Oh my....hmmmmmmmmmm......and has anyone else noticed how good the makeup on "old" Dick Van Dyke is, he looks almost like that today!

Jose -- why would anyone want to eat rare chicken???

I wondered that too, but the waitress at the yakitori restaurant I was at informed me that cooking chicken medium-rare is in the Japanese style.  -That and the chicken sashimi - raw chicken.  -And she also reassured me that they only get their chickens from very good, organic farms...

I may give the medium-rare chicken a try sometime, but I'm pretty sure I'll keep passing on the raw stuff.

What is vegetarian sushi? I thought the whole point of sushi was that it wasn't vegetarian.
Not so at all.  Sushi actually refers to the rice.  It is normally topped with sashimi, the raw fish, but it can be topped with other ingredients as well, including various vegetarian stuff.

The Target near here still had a bunch of the latest batch of Disney Tins in stock.  I was surprised considering how fast the first batch of Tins got bought up.  I guess they made more this time.  I may spring for the Mickey Mouse, Vol. 2 set if it's still on the shelf the next time I'm there - which most likely will be tomorrow.  -Alas, I missed out on buying Vol. 1 when it originally came out.  Ah, well..

You want a stinkin' Kritzer haiku. Here's a stinkin' Kritzer haiku:

Benjamin dreams and looks up
White cotton undies
He is happy now

The feel of cotton
white and soft against her skin
Makes Benjamin smile

And my final selection of the evening...

Clouds of white cotton

But Susan is gone

Thank you all for the vibes!  I'll hopefully find out something more definite tomorrow.  

Right now my internet is refusing to load anything...except HHW.  Go figure.

If you go to the Capital Playhouse website, they have a whole bunch of pictures from a performance.  Here's a picture of the four:



They didn't acknowledge in any way the fact that the two stepbrothers are African-American and Caucasian.  They were just stepbrothers.
