Japan: Top 10 Things To Do In Japan [National Geographic] One thing that struck me about this list was that it was so inane. Isn't NG the magazine responsible for all those Long Exposure Photography Of The Stars Over A Mountain Range pictures? I love those. Anyway this list recommends you go Kyoto and Asakusa, try out a hot spring, stay in ( Read more... )

Can I ask you a random question? Do you like Japanese Kit Kats? Have you tried all of them, and what is your favorite taste? I only had 'lemon vinegar', and it wasn't anything special (not gross either, just... lemon), but I want to ask my friend in Japan to send me some. Any kinds you would recommend? :)

My favourite was miso, believe it or not. But right now, there aren't many special ones on sale -- I've seen mostly zunda (edamame from Miyagi) and 'adult' (dark chocolate). You usually have to go to certain regions to find them.

I just went through the whole list on wiki, and miso got one of the loudest "EWW" ;) The kinds with aloe vera sound the nicest to me now.

Zunda seems interesting, I will ask for this one! Thanks!

I was in the Co-Op the other day and saw new pumpkin cheesecake Kit-Kats, which were pretty good. They were only available as a large page of mini Kit-Kats though.

Miso tastes like shio-caramel, btw, not savoury at all. It's very good!

Oh good, it wasn't just me seeing the blatant Star Wars callout at the end of episode 2. I'll have to show it to my husband; I commented on it when we were watching it and he sort of harrumphed, but he's the Star Wars fan of the two of us.

At some point I'll get an MLP icon. I really should use the My Little Omi that someone made for me years ago - I use it over on the MLP Arena, at least. XD

We thought it was pretty similar too and were puzzled by Applejack's wink, but J was the one who went looking for it. Now the wink makes sense... :-)
