Hanami in summer?
Summer type weather… almost like the weather is playing an april fool’s joke on us :P A nice one at that!
Felt really lucky to be able to enjoy this scene on such gorgeous weather!
First ride of 2013
Really glad I had time to take Strida Mini out today!
It was a perfect afternoon for a ride, it was cold but not freezing. So glad to have Strida Mini as I was able to go a bit further than if I was just walking and managed to take some photos with my doll, Aki which I am quite happy with :)
Hanami 2013 – plum blossoms
Spring is definitely here, the plum blossoms are blooming, quite slowly, possibly due to the weather — they tend to become fluffier with a bit more sun. It had been rather cloudy and windy the past week…
Senmei Fan Art!
Drew a fan art of Senkaku Mei/Senmei, the adorable Mascot of Anime Revolution ^o^/ Got tickets to attend this year :3 Looking forward to check out the cosplayers and see what’s in store! Last year I managed to go one of the days, and some of my friends had a Yoyo Tsuri booth ^o^/
I drew a fan art of Senmei before last year too! :3
Really like to see Mascots “grow up” online XD
Cabbage and Pork gyoza
My husband and I love gyozas, and sometimes have cravings to eat it, the ones we purchased often taste like they have a lot of MSG in it, so after I learnt how to make it, I decided to make my own version of the fillings :)
I made gyoza skin/wrappers from this youtube tutorial by ochikeron.
The fillings for the gyoza I made this time are cabbage, carrot, minced garlic, shallot, salt (to draw out the moisture) and pepper. I will be readjusting the amount to see if more vegetables would work out.
I used the food processor we got last year to grind the pork, I used 2 pieces of pork chop loin (I think?) I may reduce the amount of meat and see if it works, as husband remarked that more vegetable will be better. Read more
