The Week #216
by James- πΊ I started watching What Did You Eat Yesterday Season 2 (Netflix). You can guess from the title that the show is largely about food as the main character cooks at home and explains what he's doing while he's doing it (to himself, not like a cooking show) and my explanation isn't doing it any justice. The sub-plot is that the main characters are gay men and it portrays a realistic look at what life is like in Japan as a gay man. Just watch an episode and I promise you'll be hooked.
- π« The emoji is of pita, but it's the closest I could get to cheese naan. Sorry. Inspired by episode 2 of season 2 of What Did You Eat Yesterday where he cooks a butter chicken curry and cheese naan (official recipe from TV Tokyo), I had a go at making some and it turned out ok. Technically it may have been a cheese roti as I ran out of white flour and used whole wheat for the remainder. Either way, I will give it a go. Did I also make the buttery chicken curry you ask? No, I did not. Why? Because somehow I ran out of curry powder and garam masala and basically everything but cumin (I never run out of that). What is the world coming to...
- βοΈ It feels like the temperatures for the summer have peaked or just about peaked in Kanto. It could be that the sun isn't fully up by 4:30am making the difference, but the heat is less oppressive in the morning.
- πββοΈ Related to the oppressive heat, after having a reprieve from the temps in the US a couple weeks ago, returning to the heat is difficult mentally. It's just zapped my motivation to do...anything (perhaps you can tell as the top item for the week is about watching a TV show π). Still I got in 2 runs last week, not my goal of 3 but my "minimum number of runs".

Checkin to Starbucks
Much more crowded than the trains led me to believe it would be.
