Finally I've completed another chapter!

I don't think there's anybody out there rooting for Miss Kimura, and after this chapter...

I also updated the first chapter a tiny bit (I changed the original name of this chapter), so I updated the table of contents and reuploaded it, for anybody who is particularly completist. The recipe isn't exactly porridge, as I had originally translated it, so I changed it to something that felt a little more appropriate.

As always, big thanks to Ashenta for doing the hard work of cleaning this chapter.

Clayton's Italian Casserole

Reader Clayton tried out the recipe from the very first chapter Volume 1 Chapter 1, "An Easy and Filling Italian Casserole", and it looks great! This recipe is definitely one I want to try myself.

I plan to get the next chapter out this weekend, so keep a look out for it!

Slight break

I was planning to get out a chapter this weekend, but then I came down with something unpleasant and have been primarily being pathetic this week, and will probably not get the next chapter done this week.

Soon, though!

Send me more pictures!

Araiwa Ramen Photo!

A reader who goes by DrKunze sent me this delicious-looking photo of a bowl of ramen he made using the recipe from Volume 1 Chapter 9, "Let's Try to Make Hakata-Style Tonkotsu Ramen!"



Please send me more photos at bartley.tanaka@gmail.com! I'd love to see these recipes come to life.

Food pictures!

I just wanted to say, if any of you guys ever make one of these recipes, please send me pictures at bartley.tanaka@gmail.com and I'll post them here for all to see!

I'd love to see how these turn out if anyone ever tries them. I know there are at least a few that I need to try out myself (particularly the casserole from the very first chapter).

It's a little later today than I had planned but I've finally finished it.

Just so you know, the shinkansen from Hakata to Tokyo only takes about five and a half hours nowadays. Also, I don't think it's planes that Araiwa has troubles with...

Only three chapters left until I complete the first volume! Thank Ashenta for her cleaning work!

I'm happy that my company never had a traditional athletics event. I just had to play dodgebee (dodgeball with a soft frisbee) and do street cleaning. But since this happened during July, I wish I had been part of one of the groups that got to do indoor bowling (and also street cleaning).

Ashenta did the cleaning again, and there is no way I could have gotten it out this quickly without her help.
