Chocolate is delicious

Oh, the things I have to say are numerous tonight as a number of exciting things have happened recently. First of all, chocolate. Ryan recently got back from Japan and consequently, I have had to relocate my chocolate wall from just above my bed squeezed in the corner to a larger wall of its own. My feature wall.


So there it is :) Not too shabby if I do say so myself. And as you can see about half of the wall is dedicated to the genius that is kit kats.


So what might my wall consist of exactly, you may ask? Chocolate containers of many a flavour. Where shall I start? I'll group them in terms of their brand, rather than where they're located on the wall I think ^^ Cadbury: Black forest, mint bubbly, duo, dairy milk, dream, caramello. Hersheys: Hersheys kisses, cookies and cream. Whittakers: Milk chocolate cashew. Look (Japanese brand): Parfait (x2), New York Cheesecake, coffee, 'a la mode'. Miscellaneous: Strawberry Aero, Milkybar, oreo white chocolate, chocolate mochi (from Tokyo tower), and traditional Japanese chocolate.

Now, what you've all been waiting for, List of kitkat flavours:


Blueberry, banana, purin, kinako (soybean flour), soy sauce, orange, strawberry shortcake, chunky caramel, original, original (limited edition box :o), dark, bitter almond, semi-sweet, Framboise (a raspberry brandy apparently!), aloe yoghurt, miso, green tea, carrot and apple, royal milk tea, ginger ale, milk coffee, ohagi (a kind of rice ball), strawberry, passionfruit and raspberry.

Yes. Many, MANY kitkats ;D

23 flavours to be precise. I have yet to try them all (Ryan brought back ALOT) but so far my favourites include ginger ale (surprisingly delicious!), blueberry, carrot and apple, passionfruit and raspberry. And you can never beat the originals of course! :)

So, other than chocolate, but still on the topic of food: last night Ryan and I went to a kaiten sushi shop. Which we all know as conveyor belt sushi (:P). It was AMAZING. Expensive (compared with Japanese standards anyway) but great fun. My favourites included salmon and cream cheese and the seared tuna. But we also had some beef and even some tempura sushi! As well as that, there were a variety of fried goods to chose from such as fried chicken, dumplings and spring rolls.

On Monday night I signed up for a printmaking class. On Tuesday I went to said class and had the time of my life. It seems that the others do not have much printmaking ability and I'd say my teacher underestimates the amount of experience I've had, but that isn't a problem. It's really good to actually LEARN what I'm supposed to do from a professional rather than making things up as I had been doing before now. It's also good to do printmaking without the pressure of assignments. It's great to just have some fun with art. Over the 8 weeks, we get to do a whole range of different printmaking methods. The first we did was very simple: just inking up a plastic board (I think called perspex) and making a collage with ripped/cut out shapes of newsprint and then printing it. So much fun :)
