Food is expensive, but life is okay anyway. Tofu-flavored candy is bizarre and weird. I have lots of snacks and lots of breakfast and lots of dinner, and just reserved next morning's rice so I can have more of same for all of the above. Stocked for weeks, I think, which is good because it means when I go out of the house now I shall have to find other things to do! Would have gone out earlier today and just looked around but maaaan, downpour.

I think I may be overfeeding myself. If this is even possible. Much better than starving, though, so will continue in this vein until the effects are actually felt.

Tofu candy is really bizarre and weird.

Also, the Japanese do not know about bacon. They slice ham into strips and call it bacon and just do not understand.

They do know about mushrooms, though, and how. I went to the store just for rice but there were discounts on lovely things like long thin mushrooms, and I've been increasing my veggies-and-minerals intake anyway so you know what the hey.

Also there are now acrylic paints. Need to pick: do I first paint up my house slippers, my bookshelves, my plastic shelves, or do I actually start a canvas?

ironic--tofu in cooking is supposed to derive its flavor from that which it is cooked it! tofu doesn't really have its own flavor when traditionally cooked. (although there is stinky tofu!)

It's kind of... milky? But also kind of beans.

you mean, just like soy milk? ;) which is about right cause tofu comes from soybeans and all that...
