Dark chocolates and my dream

Do you want to stay healthy?

I read an interesting article about our health.

According to it, we can stay healthy if we keep eating dark chocolates!!!
The article said that regular xomsumption of small doses of dark chocolate my protect our hearts from inflammation and subsequent cardiovascular desease.

A few years ago, dark chocolates are so popular among young women in Japan.
The news said that dark chocolates help our diet.
I know that chocolates have many cacaos and polyphenol.
Of course, I like chocolates before I knew that.
So I often eat or drink chocolates when I feel hungry in my office and home.

I would like to eat dark chocolates because I wrote about it.

I must buy a lot of chocolates after work...

Yes, I believe that my height doesn't increase forever because I will keep eating dark chocolates every day.
It must be many woman's dreams.

Do you believe that?

2.Cut in pieces long about 4cm. Save 200cc of reserved water for later use.
3.Cut deep fried been curd "abura-age"(1/2 piece) in pieces width about 1cm. Add less than1 tbsp sugar and 1 tbsp light soy sauce, and cook it,mixing on a medium heat until the sauce is ready.

The recipe of Omurice

Hi,folks.

How are you? I am fine.

Today is a pay day. So I am so glad!!!

Because I lost many money this month.... I may write about it on my blog.

Anyway, I will same money to travel next year.

By the way, I would like to write how to make omurice on my blog!

The recipe is here.

1.Cut chicken(30g) and slice green pepper(1/4),onion(1/4),2 mushrooms.
2.Melt butter or oil in a hot frying pan, saute first the onion, then add the chicken, and finally the mushroom and green pepper.
3.When the onions in the pan become semi-transparent, season with two-and-a-half tablespoons of tomato ketchup. Add cooked rice(about 60g) and a dash of salt and pepper.
Saute until done, then turn off heat and leave in the frying pan.
4.Break 1 egg into a bowl, mix, then add a little salt and pepper. Oil another frying pan, and then melt 10 g butter in it over a medium-high heat. Pour in the egg mixture.
Spread around quickly with broad strokes while moving the frying pan back and forth.
5.When the egg is half done, place the rice mixture from Step 2 on it, a little on the far side of center. Take the frying pan off the heat, then tip the pan a little to make the half of the thin omelet near you flip over onto the rice mixture.
6.Raise one side of the frying pan a little, and tap the handle to roll the omuraisu, gradually wrapping the rice inside the omelet.
7.Keep tapping until the edges of the omelet come to the top, then change the position of your hands on the frying pan handle and tip the omuraisu onto a plate so that the edges are underneath.

I think the step 6 and 7 are a bit difficult.
Indeed, I can't do that.
So I often cover baked egg into ketchep's rice after dishing rice from a pan.

Even if omurice that you cooked looks like worse, the taste is same!

omurice

Do you know omurice?

I like Omurice and I often cook Omurice at home.
Yesterday, I cooked omurice because I have enough money.
When we cook omurice, we don't need to pay a lot of money.
(Tomorrow is a pay day. So now, I can't wait for tomorrow!)
If there are at least egg and onion, you can cook omurice!



Sometimes, I cook omurice and pack them to lunch box.
Then I eat them at my office.
Yes, omurice is an inevpensive and homestyle Japanese dish!
I will write about my recipe later!

Falling into instantaneous sleep

What time do you arrived at your offices?

Hi, folks.
How are you?

I am fine.

By the way,what time do you arrive at your offices?
The start time in my office is 9 am.
So I must arrive at my office at least before 9 am.
I always arrive at my office at about 8:54 am.

You may know that I recently work overtime since last month because I have to release some programs next month.
So I felt lethargic from lack of sleep for weeks because I came back to my home late every day.

When I woke up at 7:20 am of this morning as usual, I felt sleep and I'd like to take a day off.
However, I changed my mind and left my apartment at 8 am after taking a shower.

About 30 mins later, I arrived at Ichigaya station and I tried to change other subway.

When I arrived at there, there were many people.
Station's staff gave certificates of subway's delays to people who waited for subways.

In Japan, we receive certificates of the subway and trains if they are delayed.
Then companies don't cut our salary when we produce certificates to our companies. Of course, I received a certificate of the subway's delay.

Because many subways were delayed ,the subway was so crowded in people.
So I decied to get on the next subway and sat down on the bench of the station.

But...

I quickly fell into instantaneous sleep in there while sitting on the bench of the station "Ichigaya"...

20 mins later, I realized to fall into sleep.
As soon as I looked at the clock at once, I quickly got on the subway.

It was 9:30 am that I arrived at my office...

From now, I won't try to sit on the benches of stations while feeling sleepy.

UK artist collaboration T-shrits for UK-Japan 2008

Do you like the opera?

Hi,folks!

How are you?

I am fine. However, I am still busy because of my work.
If it is Novermber, I may take some holidays because one of the tasks will be over.

When I sometimes work overtime in my office, I can't believe that I had gone to UK last year!

Yes, I'd like to go to UK if it is possible.
(In addition, the tickets of airplanes are cheaper now.)

By the way, I got a email from UK-Japan.

The email was an invitation of the opera in suntory hall of Tokyo. To tell the truth, I have watched the opera "Aida" when I was a child. Because I participated in an activity "Orchestra club" of the junior high school. At first, I wanted to master the trimpet. But I gave up because it was too difficult to master playing the guiter...

So I often listened to the classic music and watechd operas.

Anyway, I hope that I will go to watch the opera tomorrow. But I don't know whether I will go to there tomorrow...
