I'm trying this whole eating healthy thing, and I figured what's healthier than rice? As I'm working on the geisha story before I go teach, I thought I'd throw together a quickie Japanese rice dish, only to remember that all my proper Japanese ingredients are at my client's house, as I cook stuff there for him a lot.
But, there was nothing else healthy in the house to eat. So I whipped up a batch of chicken with rice, trying to do it Japanese style with approximate Western ingredient equivalents.

This was highly unsuccessful.

I'm eating rice that tastes like gingerbread chicken with mayo on it. And I'm eating it, because that's all there is in the house for lunch.
yuk.

Just thought I'd share - now back to the geishas. I wonder if this is how bad natto tastes...

Even the dogs don't want any of it. That's a bad sign.

Gingerbread chicken with Mayo on rice? Ergh!!!,

LOL I think we all have our culinary horror stories.

Mine involves tuna, soy sauce, and an attempt to make breading.

Notice how those horror stories always seem to accompany a nearly-empty cupboard?

it is as bad as it sounds. Possibly worse. I forgot to mention the overly SALTY aspect, thanks to kikkoman soy sauce (the mcdonalds of soy sauce bleg)

holy lord that sounds bad. :) At least you share my pain. You know sh*t is bad when even the beagles won't eat it. :b I should've gone with my gut and had a couple of spoonfuls of peanut butter.

Oh ew! Poor you. If you were in Pittsburgh we could totally have a yummy and healthy lunch...just sayin' :-)

I have a picture of gingerbread cookies sprinkled on top of chicken and mayo. Uh yuck. Poor dear! At least you tried. You need some good thai food to make it better. Thai food cures all.

Ohyes you're right - I love me some thai food. I used okonomiyaki sauce, which is really only meant for okonomiyaki, and I think that's where the gingerbread part was coming from. Gago. We'll try healthy for dinner. :)

Trust me after the garbage I choked down for lunch, it would have been worth an 8 hour drive for something better. *Shudder* it was nasty beyond nasty. :(

actually it's been going on for a while now - it is because of that story though, and I think many people thought the way you did because it was based on mass demand for geisha rose that this story came to be. Just between you and me, I'm writing about two more chapters before things start to get...interesting... :)
