Some random things I'm liking (disliking)....not really liking this green tea from Fauchon.
It tasted like the metal can...boo!
One is a yuzu (citron) & kinkan (kumquat) and the other is tien-cha (Chinese blackberry).
The citrus one was a bit on the sour side and the tien-cha had a menthal flavor.
During the winter I find having a little throat drop in my mouth is a great way to keep my throat from getting dry and scratchy.
They put their "chocolate" watch on a plate to make it like a dessert.
Iwatsuka Seika's Ebi-Kari (shrimp curry). Crunchy shrimp crackers are flavored with a spicy curry and a handful of roasted peanuts.
Perfect with beer.
On the bottom, caramelized onions, and on top, pieces of peppery roast chicken...delicious.
They only make 200 of these a day, it was so-so.
What have you been enjoying?
My throat is scratchy this AM and that choclat au lait would be the perfect remedy~
ReplyDeletehope your scratchy throat gets better Lizzy :)

I think our weather will follow suit and be like yours too. For 3 days in a row it was around 18°C, crazy strong winds and felt like spring arrived. Today I think not as the weather dude says temps will drop.
ReplyDeleteI like that The Descendants didn't win anything except best screenplay adaption or whatever. I fell asleep halfway into the movie last night!
we had snow this morning Rowena, Satoshi was sad he had to go to work, he wanted to stay in his bed all day :) I heard George and Brad had a bet, if B won, G had to babysit B's kids at G's Italy home :)
ReplyDeleteTake care.

I sympthasize with Satoshi...enough of the snow already. I'm afraid for my tulips that have all begun to pop out of the ground.
ReplyDeleteSo funny about the bet! Yep, I can see the papparazzi going nuts if that ever happened.
That lemon baum kuchen looks amazing. ;-)
ReplyDeleteyeah my tulips have been peeking out since December Rowena :0
ReplyDeleteIt was Deb :)
Take care you two.
