26th July 2010: EEL DAY

Every year we have a day called the "EEL DAY" or "UNAGI DAY".
Everyone eats eel on this day but seriously, I did not eat any unagi!

When my friend told me there is a Unagi Day I could not believe him until I see the sign with my own 2 eyes.

It turns out he is right!

I was amused but at the same time wonder whether Japanese might have any other days that celebrate food, maybe Natto Day? hauhauhauhuahahahaahhaah (eeuw- sorry I just dislike the smell not the taste).

Thanks for reading.
SOrry for the late update.

Cheers,
Sasa
XOXO

Guys, I will post a blog about 2 absolutely amazing artists, both males, from different continents. PITBULL and GACKT. LOL Why do I like Pitbull? He always has amazing bodacious dancers, not the skinny scrawny ones. His songs are always dynamic, upbeat and dang hot. His interview sessions are always very energetic, funny and very multi-cultural in how he speaks about his songs and himself. I always have a thing with guys that have long black hair, with big muscles like gorillas, cool but funny at the same time. But, PITBULL is different. He makes me believe that there are many men out there who still love curvacious women just like my friend said "bon-kyu-bon" women. LoL. Here is his interview from the AMA. Next, is GACKT. Ah, he is just my typical guy. But, as a Japanese male artist. He is not too skinny, he's tall, he's a perfectionist, he has lots of pet dogs, great white teeth (shark? LOL), deep voice and looks totally CUTE CUTE CUTE. HE SEEMS PERFECT. These guys...

Ah... Hybrid Ramen From Nissin Foods called "FutoMen Dodo" It's funny how they play on the words "futo (fat) men (noodle)" then the men in the CM are all chubby men. It's just awesome and creative. Watch now! hehehe I stumbled across this CM from a website and it is hilarious and succeeded in me wanting to buy and eat it! I wonder if Miracle Food store has this in stock or not. LOL I want to try this cup ramen badly! Oh why is it called Hybrid Ramen? Well in the CM it is written "fried X non-fried noodle" combined together. Now I wonder what that tastes like. lol Btw, this cup ramen seems to be around for almost more than a year but I do not eat cup noodles that much anymore like I used to. Now I stick to boiled noodles like Mie Goreng, Jajangmyeon (black noodle), Mama Tom YUm noodle, and of course Nissin Udon (that I make myself combine with tamanegi + wasabi + udon tsuyu). XOXO Sasa
