Vera as a third person
that’s hilarious!

Vera: for all that I harp on others for referring to themselves as that, I like doing the same thing when reproducing dialogs.

Oh man, now I’m going to make those today. Not sure what to put inside as a vegetarian, though. Vegetables? Fake meat?

Vera:umeboshi, unfortunately I can’t find that here. But then what do I expect?

Oh yum, Japanese food. If I give you money for stamps, will you send some to me?

Vera: haha, sure

Mm….looks good! Onigiri….I’ve heard about that a lot, as well as ramen, etc.

Vera: yep, ramen’s next on my list of things to make/try.

Japanese cuisine is love!

I hate salesladies who don’t even care for their customers! Whenever I encounter one, I usually answer back and go Naomi Campbell (I should stop using that phrase!) on her or better yet, talk to the manager, if he/she’s around.

Vera: you know, I really wanted to do that sometimes, but my dad never let me. He said that would be much too rude of me. :rolleyes:

Hmph what a rude salesgirl. I get people like that every now and then. Some people get off the wrong side of bed every day.

I love sushi! My mom use to take Japanese cooking classes and make all sorts of fancy sushis hehehe.

Vera: I love sushi too… but that’s onigiri

I like putting smoked salmon in my onigiri.

Pff. Why can’t people read that it’s “onigiri”?

Vera: I’m not entirely sure… but it’s somewhat similar to making sushi. I wanted to try umeboshi too, but I think that’s hoping for way too much.

SUSHI!

I love sushi, especially those with the raw fish such as salmon and tuna. (:

And that sales assistant sounds … rude.

Perhaps after you bumped into the Nori, you could have wagged it at her so that she can be educated on how a Nori looks like! Ignorance is not bliss. -evil grin-

Vera: I did indeed look around for her, but she wasn’t there anymore. And that’s onigiri not sushi. xP

In response to the comment you just left at my site…I can’t review you! Your site actually looks nice. Sorry, but you have to be an internet moron for me to poke fun at you.

I’ve never actually prepared Japanese food myself before, but I’ve never had anything from a restaurant that I didn’t like. That onigiri looks so good.

As for that shop assistant, what an idiot. Just because they’re unfamiliar with what you’re talking about doesn’t mean they have to be rude. They could have just said, “I’m sorry, I’m not sure what you’re talking about.” There was no reason for them to get like that. Sheesh.

Vera: ah well… I can always hope. Well… she did sound rather scared, so maybe that’s why.

Geesh, I’ve had too many idiot-shop-assistant encounters to remember them. “I don’t even work in this section”, hah!

Anyway, oh so that’s called toasted seaweed? Ah. I’ve seen them around, my friends/family love ‘em, but I … have yet to venture into the world of Japanese cuisine. Just uh… maybe … I don’t have the guts for it? (Or even for trying. Heh.)

Vera: I’ll kidnap you and force-feed you onigiri.
