I make this sometimes. Theres a poached egg, a pickled plum, random veggies, seaweed, japanese ginger and perilla leaves. The fat noodles keep you full for a long time and its good hot or cold. I thought this was resourceful, but Neon's got me beat. I think I just skip meals or eat bananas for dinner rather than eat sweet egg powder out of a bag. Thats why I love you, you push me to new heights of culinary exploration.

Nutrition of Environmentalist's Fare at All-time Low
Today my resourcefulness + laziness, hence, laz-sourcefulness, was unmatched. Lunch = powdered brownie mix with water in a bowl. I just thought you should know. Also, this is a challenge to best me at being laz-sourceful. Bole, I know you're somewhere crouched in a corner eating a powdered cheese packet. Lav, thumb skin dinner?

My neighbourhood Tofu Shop!
It is dark and unlit, with a dirt floor and a single young man in old fashioned work clothes toiling over a cauldron in it. There are two bathtub sized containers near the front, one for soft and one for semi-firm tofu. I always ask for the soft kind, and the young tofu maker fishes dexterously for a delicate cube floating in water for me. 120 yen poorer, I cradle the still-warm mass home, and on this occasion, I covered it in chopped shiso, ginger, Japanese ginger, and soy sauce.

Sandwich Revelation
My sandwich soul got a breath of fresh air today. New Favorite Sandwich (NFS) is simple. Fresh olive and sundried tomato bread, vegan margarine, honeycrisp apple slices. I'm so excited about the apple as a new sandwich ingredient. Apple and PB? Are there any apple-companion condiments? Perhaps honey moutard?
Earlier this week I made a non-vegan sandwich which was a magical grilled cheese on sourdough with arugula and apple. The garlic and chive jack cheese was, incredibly, a mistake. It would have been better with brie or cheddar. Nevertheless I'd be lying if I confessed anything less than love for this sandwich.

not.. quite... making it....
In an edibles-related post, yesterday there was a lapsang souchong (smoked black tea) incident wherein my new moleskine agenda marinaded in some that spilled. This HAD to happen in the third week of January; now, for the next year I'm going to look like the opposite of suave. PLUS it now makes me extremely hungry whenever I catch a whiff of its delicious smoked pages. WHAT"S FOR LUNCH, KIDS?
