In my previous 4-year intermittent stint here in Japan, I really did make sure to maximize my stay here as much as possible; opting to explore new places and trying out new stuff rather than save and hibernate in my apartment. However, being an illiterate with the Japanese language still made me unable to truly live the Japanese way of life.
Until now. Lived with Atsushi for almost six days only and he taught me quite a lot about normal Japanese way of life already. Including making your rice Vitamin E enriched. Being a bride-to-be, Vitamin C and E are like magic words hence Hubbie certainly had my attention when he was explaining this certain packet to me.
Apparently, you can have your rice Vitamin E-enriched by dropping a globule or two of Vitamin E into your uncooked rice just before shutting close your rice cooker.
Vitamin E globules!
A close up.
I can only hope that having a globule or two everyday can have some visible effects in a month’s time, enough to help prep us up for our wedding. 😛
Sis Marj, kamusta ka dyan? We heard, read and is watching the news right now about the Japan earthquake. I am praying for your and Atsushi’s safety.
Hi Leah. thank you for your concern. really. both Atsushi and I are safe and am now waiting for Atsushi to be home from the office but it was really scary! i just stayed here in the corner of my room and kept contact with Atsushi online who was in the office. had some problem with my mobile phone. I can imagine how scary it was in his end kasi our office has 36 floors! the tsunami news is really awful. but thankfully, our home is far from the coast so we’re fine. we just have to deal with the scary feeling and the aftershock tremors which went on even after 3 hours na..sobra… Thanks again sis for the concern and prayers. Let’s pray as well for those near the coast and are affected by the tsunami.
Hubbie is finally home. worries allayed, at least for our own end.
Hay thank God. Yes sis, we’ll continue to pray. This is a sad and scary day talaga. I am also thankful that our office made us go home na rin (kse katabi namin Manila Bay!).
Ingats ha and am glad nag-reply ka agad sa post ko hehe!
oh! right beside manila bay! scary nga sis. glad you were made to go home early. intermittent ang internet service namin, same with mobile phones. anyways, thanks ulit sis. let’s keep praying.
