Bless the important task that was due today for the completion of the four minor tasks that were not.

JR East has teamed up with Square Enix to promote tourism in Fukushima, under the branding “Fukushima Fantasy”

Takenoko Green Curry was a success!

I am going to buy takenoko until the supermarket ladies are impressed.

Impulsively booked tickets for the Kabuki-za. Excited! But what should I know before I go?

@yokochin153604 Just decided! Green curry!

@hellobeatrix What are you going to make with it?

@llessur I was going to gift some to my neighbour and grill some but green curry sounds so delicious, I’m going to pivot…

@hellobeatrix Right, nuka, of course. I've also heard people mention milk—I guess both are slightly alkaline. Do you usually eat it 土佐-style with katsuobushi, in rice, or some other way? I had pre-packaged in rice and green curry recently but I'm looking for new ways to eat it.

@llessur You take off the outer leaves and then boil them with nuka and togarashi which is meant to remove any bitterness. Observation: in the inaka, the nuka is free.

@hellobeatrix I'm intrigued. What is going on here? Kinako? Togarashi and takenoko. In soy milk?

Yesterday I parked up at the Sakamoto Library. It was a really nice experience. I had some work to get done but still managed to browse some lovely books. I’d like to go back just to read and relax. It also took me to a very interesting neighbourhood! sakamoto-library.com

GEZAN at Budokan was stupidly good. Amazing crowd, incredible visuals and wonderful show.

@nikbrainbuster Goats cheese with nanohana! Was great. Definitely worth checking out. Maybe I prefer the Sancha spot.

@hellobeatrix What’s the white stuff underneath the greens? All the tacos look amazing! I need to try them out next time I’m back in Japan 🇯🇵

Los Tacos Azules in Ebisu for lunch. Fuki-no-to quesadilla a highlight.

Over the years I’ve been in many towns and cities when they were being bombed — in a few cases (Baghdad, Belgrade etc) by my own country. No matter what the justification, most of the victims have been entirely innocent. I’ve come to loathe the very thought of aerial bombardment.

@jonathontoon I read that as Notion.

never mistake motion for action

@davidcho Even adding tags would help I think!

@hellobeatrix Good idea - will figure it out (as best we can)!

Bear with me as I go "founder mode" (derogatory).  The project I've been working on was featured by the App Store today, so figured it was a good time to explain it in my first ever "🧵". It's called Postcard and it helps you answer the v real question: "what should I eat today"
