Back, Like the Dinosaurs Aren't.

It has been many, many moons since I've been on here! In my absence I returned to the (sort of) motherland Pennsylvania for a month, where family and friends and almond butter were plentiful. It was really nice to be home for a bit, I needed it I think.

A day or so after I got back to Japan, my lovely friend ginger friend K.S. arrived to visit from Hawaii, and together we took the Kanto region by storm. Her stay was roughly two weeks. We encountered Showa era scented trains, cherry blossoms and cherry blossom flavored everything, Japanese Elvis impersonators, a thousand and one satisfying triangles of rice, futuristic dystopias by water, and amusing clocks, and much more. I was really glad I got to experience her first time in Japan with her.

This was all very wunderbar.

However I will tend to the happy fluffy details later; I finally have some cooking shots I can babble about!

Many of my days at home were spent sort of stuck in the house, pitter-pattering about my kitchen, so I concocted and experimented and went a bit ingredients happy. Some of my projects turned out scrumptious, some turned out monstrous, and some turned just kind of neutral. Whatevs yo, I was just happy to be back in the kitch.

I think I will do the cooking posts individually. So. Be warned, dear readers.
