They're not necessarily more expensive than Japanese ones, either.<br /><br />Yes, it's a one giant blueberry muffin/cake, but because it's made in a rice cooker, it's really moist and really nice. The secret is to chuck lots of baking powder into the mix. That makes it fluffy.<br /><br />Hmm. What would happen if you added baking powder to rice?! :pRuroushahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10638258526527895171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1664130016930236672.post-7699679189306375082012-07-24T22:53:48.792+08:002012-07-24T22:53:48.792+08:00The one time I did push buttons randomly, some dud...The one time I did push buttons randomly, some dude popped out of the wall at me.

I am borrowing the Saviour's computer as mine is in the shop and the backspace key is tiny! I keep hitting 7777 to backspace, or \\\.

There are always funny stories about people using Japanese bidets and the trouble they get into.

He went in to a department store to use the loo. He did a number 2 and when he was done, he pushed a button for what he thought was the washlet. Instead it was the emergency call button and a siren went off. Needless to say, he wiped very quickly and ran out the stall.<br /><br />A few years later, his mother would do the exact same thing. ^^Druhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08002643968517980587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1664130016930236672.post-26075678936319065612012-07-24T00:41:29.396+08:002012-07-24T00:41:29.396+08:00You just reminded me of my firsts with Japanese st...You just reminded me of my firsts with Japanese stuff. It took 5 years before I got a Japanese computer. Now I don't mind it but it is frustrating when I want to type using a regular American keyboard. "Shift-7" is no longer apostrophe.
