Still knitting for Christmas. Something small, very popular and striped. Increasing stitches every fourth row. Made a mistake and had to frog a bunch of rows. Progressing rather slowly.
Now there are 10 g on each ball of yarn left to knit until I reach the turning point and can start decreasing...
Off to bed. Bye!
A broken 18.
Lately (as the slow person I am with lately I mean something about half a year) I have been thinking I should try new things.
I have been living here for so long and still never went to Yoshinoya or Pachinko hall, never been doing Karaoke... actually these things still do not seem to be urgent. But I like to try new food or ingredients, like okara (and I did experiment with it a bit - loving Unohana!) or arrowroot (くわい). There is still so much new to discover for me here in Japan, and you never know what you are missing out if you never try...
Today I made fresh arrowroot chips.
Peeled (tedious because they are so tiny, stopped after only four!), sliced, deep fried: crispy arrowroot chips.
Deliciously crispy and gone quickly.
Wishing you a pleasant day!

At the dry cleaner.
Have a good day!
Edit: Gosh, missed the deadline by 5 seconds today... already Friday the twelfth here in Japan and in Australia and New Zealand... twelve days until Christmas :)
Today's number four was found on a bag from quatre saisons that is filled with waste paper. The photo was taken on Monday, which in our area is pick up day for waste paper, cans and glass.
Till later!
Big time repair.
