dunno it's similar to regular spinach...japanese like to preparae spinach with garlic as well....

or better yet...have you been to japanese restaurants and had spinach with bacon? squeeze a lil' lemon juice...that ish is bombay.

You don't say. I need to remind myself to visit Kinokuniya some time soon. Now I don't read mangas, but with a cover like that...just look at the cover.

For lunch, I had some beef kabobs from an Afghan restaurant.

nice lunch, afghan eh? never had that kind before.

yeah, i don't read the mangas, i just buy whichever j-idol i like is on the cover, but i am curious to know how to read kanji/katakana and hiragana. I am actually teaching myself from some books, but moving at a snails pace...:bonk:
i will try to get some scans in of rina laters. :thumbsup:

it's boring, son...it's sterile, like an unused hypodermic needle...i'm a city slicker...i like big city shit...new york, l.a., san francisco, london, tokyo...chicago...i've been to all those cities...

don't get me wrong, it's rich and clean....but pretentious and dull.

yeap, just like (sterile) Ster-vine(irvine) very clean, and boring too, suburbia,
i would consider living in Tokyo, all the hot j-girls on the train and everywhere else, the good foods, and everything else about the metropolis city, i think i will pass on NY and maybe SF. But those are nice cities. Believe it or not, i am more of a suburbia type person, but when it comes to Tokyo, then i am all for it :woot:

blah, irvine...i used to work there too....that shiet is the palo alto of soCal. hmm...the closest thing in american to tokyo IS NEW YORK. i lived there for 3 years...i wouldn't mind living in tokyo but only for a couple of years b/c after that i think i would get burned on the whole place despite my fascination and interest in japanese society and popular culture....i know the one thing i would NOT get sick of...agreeing with you..is the FOOD! i love japanese food :mrgreen:

Ramen for dinner.

Actually, every Friday is ramen for dinner. :beaten:
