I'm sure you'd have fun. I did not follow Japanese tradition with my pickles, I just used a few Japanese ingredients, but they are still very tasty (and super simple).Denise | Chez Danissehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06418226690328176970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5232927064230838150.post-55471254527910390372010-07-29T17:38:50.356-07:002010-07-29T17:38:50.356-07:00I have never heard of Japantown...that is really i...I have never heard of Japantown...that is really interesting. <br />I love Japanese culture and cuisine- very inspiring.<br />Your lovely pickles look like art- gorgeous in that lovely jar.I bet they taste as delish than they look.Magnolia Handspunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05128653919455037988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5232927064230838150.post-90052661333685071262010-07-29T14:08:00.911-07:002010-07-29T14:08:00.911-07:00I love to travel where you go with you.

I made the okra twice, once with tofu and once with paneer. The paneer version was much better.<br /><br />gracia, Spending your days traveling through film seems like a beautiful way to spend time.

I've never seen this before. I can't decide if it's just too odd or if I might have to give it a try. I used to grow lemon cucumbers and LOVE them, especially small. Have fun!
