My Argyll Japanese Breakfast.

I wanted to copy Shiho's breakfast from last friday because it looked tasty. We have really nice seafood where we live. I like the crabs and prawns best. Sometimes Dad swaps our pork and lamb for prawns. You might call them langoustines. I went to our fishmonger and bought a kipper from Tarbert and an Arbroath Smokie because they looked like the fish in Asuka's picture.

I couldn't find any white tofu but we found a tin of braised tofu and packet miso soup. The tofu sank so you can't see it. There was seaweed in it but it sank too. I put raspberries in our pancakes because they are ripe in the garden. I found the grapefruit hard to eat so Dad cut between the sections and around the edges. The beans we had aren't fermented but called borlotti beans and we heated them up. The Arbroath Smokie is on top and the Tarbert kibpper below.

I used the chopsticks for the beans and rice, well the big chunks of rice! I put the rice and beans in the miso soup but then I had to use a spoon. The fish smelled like smoke from a bonfire but I liked it. Please let me know what food-o-meter and health ratings you'd give it. Also marks out of 10 for how close I copied Shiho's breakfast!

It's funny Jakarta (19s, I got distracted when I found Christmas Island) is closer than Canberra. On the globe it looks like Dublin is closer to me than London. Oslo is closer then London to some parts of Scotland. I hope you have lots of lemons on your tree so you can make enough lemonade to take our total to £113,000. We are only £100 short! That is a lot of lemonade though. Good luck with your sale and thank you.

Jags today, aaarrggghhhh!
