Watching a japanese drama, Hotaru no Hikari, it's about a japanese interior design office gal who by day is smartly dressed and coiffed, but at home is secretly a recluse and passionate slob. Her favorite thing to do is to sit on her porch in her stained tshirts and track pants, drinking canned beer, and eating dried squid with mayonnaise. Hilarity ( Read more... )

That girl looks like she has a fun life. I think I want to be her.

She does, she lives in what would amount to a 500K house for low rent, doesn't even bother to go to bed, just sleeps on the porch under newspapers to wake to the sun, surrounded by empty beer cans. Than by day she has an outstanding cute wardrobe with the latest hip hair.

I want to be her too. I think we all are her, but there's too many people around at home to let us do it. Looking around at my bedroom, with clothes strewn all around the floor, I am her. I think all women need their own bedroom, where no body else can come in. At least have that little square footage as our sanctuary to let it all hang out.

Oh yes, so yummy AND LOW CALORIE!!!!!!!!! Like, beef jerky, a packet is only 100 calories? Same thing. You can literally buy a whole dried squid, it's flattened to about 1/4 inch, and you roast it, toast it, than you peel it into long strips and start eating. But they sell it in packets too, ready to eat. Koreans dip it in red kochijang sauce. Better beer food you will not find! Except maybe buffalo chicken wings.

Oops, ha ha, I replied in the wrong window! Ignore that.

I watch it in Japanese, and than find the .SRT file online somewhere to add subtitles.

I don't know about Hellmans.... but I have had a similar Japanese mayo for sushi. It is salty, firm and very creamy/eggy rather than sweet and vinegary. Not a particularly popular one out here (australians seem to favour sweeter products which I don't like at all)
