Rice rice and more rice!

Ever wondered what to do with that pesky leftover rice? Well wonder no more! Thanks to Japanese cookbooks, by eyes have been opened to the many creations which I can try. So far I've had a go at two. Although one of them is pretty much just fried rice. So I'll give you the recipe for the other.

Curry Rice
Ingredients:
200g (1 cup I think) cooked rice
1Tbsp butter
1/4 onion
frozen veges
1 tsp curry powder
1/2 can (40g) tuna

Melt the butter, cook the onion. Add the veges until they're defrosted. Then add the curry powder til it coats everything. Then add the rice and tuna and mix well. It's very nice and spicy. But the stuff I had was probably made more spicy by the fact that I didn't have any plain tuna so I used half a can of thai chili flavoured salmon intstead. My mouth was on fire. But in a pleasant way :)

Thanks for the email dad! The photos were really awesome. My favourite was the one of Claire and mum. Claire looks like she's being blown away by the awesomeness of the giant tree thing they're looking at. It's good to know you guys are all having a good time!

Into my second week back at uni now. Things are starting to get back into a flow. My Monday is by far the most intense day with 9-1 lectures and then a tutorial at 2. After that it's nicely distributed over the week. I've got looooots of assignments to do over the semester though. My first is due on the 30th July and then I have another due on the 3rd of August I think. Luckily the first is just a bibliography writing assignment pretty much and the second is an essay plan rather than an actual essay. So I'm not too worried at this stage.

And yes dad, I'm totally looking forward to Thursday! It's getting closer and closer! And then I'll see all you guys (minus alice) again this weekend probably. Although I Think I'll be staying with Ryan, him just back and all.

Not much more to say, but I hope everyone is doing well!

Love Erin
