complete a scrapbook
scrapbook completed! 15 months ago

I finished the scrapbook about my trip to Japan. Now I am working on 2 books for my favorite nieces (as a surprise!) and a book about my trip to Mexico and a book about my trip to Europe in 2007. I will also be making an abbreviated version of the Europe book for my brother.



read 50 books in 2008
50 books in 2008 21 months ago

This was actually a goal that I had for last year, which I did manage to accomplish. So, I decided to try again this year. I’m hoping to finish at least 55, but if I only finish 50 books, I’ll still be happy. As of today, February 27, 2008, I have finished 9 books.



Eat fugu
Eat fugu 1 year ago

I had fugu (blowfish) while in Japan last year. I refused to eat sushi, but I was willing to eat something that had a chance of killing me. I went to a place in Osaka called Jihey.
Sadly, I didn’t like it. It was rubbery and bland. Maybe it was the method in which it was cooked. It was served raw with a certain type of mushroom and I was given this little wooden bowl that had some sort of coals in it, so that I could cook the fugu myself. I liked the experience, I just wish the fugu was better.
If I ever visit Japan again, I will fugu another chance so that I can try it prepared in a different way. Then I can decide whether or not I truly dislike it.

This is the fugu before it was cooked.
