sandwich you bought or made?

If he can't make his own ham and cheesse sandwich, that is sad. :beaten:

I shouldn't complain really - the place where I work supplies us with lunch every day (as in bread, sandwich meat, spreads etc) and hot food on Fridays.

free lunch eh? lucky....
we have a vendor that provides us sandwiches...but of course $$, they go for about $5, which isn't too much, i buy it about once a week, and bring lunch the other days...

Saves me heaps of money. I suppose I could make my own lunch, but why bother?

exactly....if i got the free lunch/sandwiches, i would probably not have to make my lunch, save me the trouble, lol... :bonk:

Ahh...all that Japanese food...tonkatsu and croquette and gyoza...and the bento...so kawaii. The Japanese are so creative. I wish my mother had made me anime bento when I was little. All I got was cold avocado sandwiches... :bleh:

Tu_triky....

If you keep posting pictures like that, my husband is going to ban me from this board. I've already been nagging him non-stop about taking me to Ichi-Ban, letting me go on a hot springs holiday to Japan, moving to Japan, etc., etc. I think he's been putting in more overtime and coming home late just so he won't have to hear me say the words "Japan" or "Japanese" once again. :hehe: :rofl:

By the way...I still think your hotsprings pictures are lovely. Thanks very much for sharing them. :victory:

i've been eating ham & cheese sandwiches all week... saving me loads of $$.

anyone know about those giant big cup of noodle, it is very filling, especially when you drink the broth, it is yum

Can anyone here tell me how to make curry nattou?
I wasnLt able to find a recipe on the internet. Is it just nattou mixed with curry powder? Eaten cold or hot or what?

Me too. So grand. I liked Cowboy Bebop (same creator) too, but not as much as SC. One of my fav epi's was the food eating contest. Foo is so awesome.

Anime Dad, I can send you SC if you want it. I have a subbed version. Like Tu-san, I stay away from dubs.

yeah i loved it...and i loved the anachronistic melding of hip hop and feudal styles.

i've never made such a dish but if it's curry natto you seek i'm pretty sure it would be a hot dish...because the natto would be there to replace the protein that is usually provided by some other food...such as beef, chicken, pork, or shrimp.

Fa sure. I loved how they did the whole episode on Graffiti art. I always bring that epi in when I teach my unit on Graffiti art. I mean, this style originated with cave drawings and you can see it pop up in nearly every era.

Hmmm... I think I'll do Thai today...

>>in the hopes that you're not being sarcastic... :sweat: <<

I bring in a lot of "unconventional" tools to help "hook" students. It's really hard to turn kids on to art since we're in a world of technology. I personally find that kids these days don't have the attention span to actually produce successful art because they have been conditioned for speed. If that makes sense...

Anyways, I find appealing to them in any little way does wonders for their motivation and initiative. :thumbsup:

Edit: Wow, totally forgot what thread I was in for a moment... lol. K, didn't go to Bamboo Garden because it's pouring rain out and I would have been late for next period, so I went to Pizza Nova instead. I haven't had pizza in so long. >>literally inhales the stuff<<
