Food!

[jamjar]

Sainsbury's is a dangerous place for a girl that's been in Japan for two years. I walked in and I didn't even get halfway around the store before I realised I'd have to stop, since I already had too much to comfortably carry home. I had to forcibly remind myself that i am just one person. I cannot eat a whole thing of roast lamb by myself. I cannot wait for my family to get back so I can make this stuff and then eat it.

It's just... I went in, and there was fruit! Masses of it! And gorgeous, beautiful tomatoes and *herbs* and good juice, not manky from-concentrate stuff, and a deli-counter where I could buy *olives*! Different kinds! And chorizo!

And all the good things -the special offer on New Covent Garden Soups, the different meats, the fruit...

Oh, food is good.

Also, I love this area. All of these big, old trees, all the front gardens and the window boxes. It's so much more green than Japanese cities, and mostly kind of overgrown, not trimmed and tweezed into a perfect shape.

Yay for fruit!

Oh, here's that info on the Rainbow Mask series: http://www.livejournal.com/users/caithion/219720.html#cutid2

You're horrible.

I'm gleeful. Oh, it was a thing of beauty.

They also had Bride and Prejudice, so I picked up a copy.

Have you watched it yet? My best friend tied me down and showed me her copy a few days ago. I was amused. Oh, and she decided she wants to try Bollywood films now, and I want to show her the Khubli-or-whatever one, but I can't remember the name....

I watched it. It was no Kabhi Kushi Khabie Gahm (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0000AMAFR/qid=1123905897/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/002-4466746-9814437?v=glance&s=dvd), but it enjoyable.
