Congrats on the sushi fella!!

Don't worry about the kanji under your name - the forum software here's notoriously bad at translating our user names into Japanese.

Mine reads 'stone maiden' or so I'm told, and yours means, well, that monkey of yours sure is attracted to the shadows!!...

 

[Kirie_Maiden]

Haha. Would love to know what mine means. Haha.

Yeah, well done on the sushi. I've yet to make sushi. Now... Onigiri, I can do! lol.

 

[shadowmonkeybangbang]

what's Onigiri? sounds familiar to me...

 

[Kirie_Maiden]

Rice balls. Haha. Much easier.

 

[shadowmonkeybangbang]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[Kirie_Maiden]

Hehe. I noticed the little onigiri in your signature. I can't make ones like that. I literally make balls... or disk shaped ones. I can't make triangle ones.

What kind of sushi did you make?

[Kirie_Maiden]

thank you, Hairy wookie

 

[Kirie_Maiden]

Hehe. I was just going to explain that I figured that out when noticing that mine and MOS's Kanji were the same. Haha.

Oops...busted!!

Sorry guys, just my little joke. Of course I was going to come clean eventually, and the emoticons were meant to give a little hint anyway, but enough of my fooling around - let's get to the topic at hand (those little balls of rice in hand rather!!)

[Kirie_Maiden]

Haha. You sneak!!! Yeah... I had sort of guessed anyway (this sounds so bad... but it's actually true) but I wanted to see how long you could keep it up for. You got outed by Mycernius. Haha.

Yeah... back to the riceballs and sushi. Anybody else made stuff like that? I put grapes in my rice balls... for the fun of it. I'm gonna try Cherries and stuff. Fruit in the riceballs, meat in the sushi... sounds good!

 

[Mycernius]

I've made sushi a number of times. Plus I bought a book on Japanese cooking. I made some for New Years Eve (which my brother and I promptly ate most of it)

 

[Kirie_Maiden]

Haha. Nothing wrong with that. I take it Sushi is addictive?

Where did you buy the book? A major chain store or just a local store?

 

[Mycernius]

Waterstones. Called New Sushi by Emi Kazuko
ISBN 1-903221-65-X and
Sushi: Taste and Technique by Kimiko Barber and Hiroki Takemura
ISBN0-7513-3699-8

 

[Kirie_Maiden]

Ooh. Nice. I'll be looking in Waterstones now. Like I need another reason to go in there. Haha.

 

[Mycernius]

What, you need a reason to go into Waterstones? Never stopped me.

 

[Kirie_Maiden]

Haha. Nah, I just generally need money and I'm in there. Wait... I go in without money too... as personal torture. I saw some books on learning Japanese and nearly ran to a cashpoint. Hahaha.

I always buy my books online, much cheaper. Try play.com (from them or the sellers where it says 'New from...', both are free p&p)

 

[Mycernius]

Play and amazon are good, but waterstones and other bookshops are more spur of the moment.

 

[Kirie_Maiden]

Haha. Yeah. I usually go Ebay anyway. Much cheaper still!
