Horrors!

[elfs]

Omaha and I went up to Capitol Hill yesterday to get haircuts and to run her over to the Metro office to get her annual pass renewed. Since the Metro office is near Uwajimaya and Kinokinuya, I decided to run over there and see if I could find my beloved Kyokuto notebooks.

They don't carry them anymore. I was terribly bummed. They do have another brand, Maruman, which looks very pretty and has some field notebooks with lovely paper, but I decided not to spend any money.

On the way out, I walked through Uwajimaya looking for a decent brand of horseradish, since the crap they sell at the local grocery store barely burns and simply does not reach my "the hair on the top of my head is seeking refugee status elsewhere" standard of horseradish pain.

They didn't have anything quite like that. There's a German deli near my house, maybe they have what I'm looking for. In the meantime, though I did see that Uwajimaya sells Baconnaise.

Baconnaise!

Have a food processor? You could try making your own horseradish condiment. If hand-grating, though, do it in the backyard with gloves and a gas mask.

I've long said that really spicy food appeals to some people because it is socially acceptable masochism. It just now occurs to me that horseradish is the same way. Hmm... I should make some really nice fancy roast beef sandwiches for dinner soon...

It makes it turn an odd color, but you could try adding wasabi powder to the horseradish you can get.
