You are lounging in Japanese Language and Culture.

 Thursday, January 31, 2002

Hmm.. The kanji on the front of the box translates as seedling in babelfish. That's probably not even close :-) What is funny is that I can find the character using IME Pad via Microsoft Word. Yet, that doesn't tell you the pronunciation. That's the rub with Kanji. However, I like the the fact that there are 2 syllabaries in the hiragana and katakana. That makes it nice to learn foreign words and certain native phrases. But, I've got a loooong road ahead of me to become anywhere near literate. I think I'll have to add a Japanese culture category, but not before I figure out a way to post Kanji.

Nope. That didn't work. I guess that's a good question for the userland discussion.

My katakana and hiragana studies are starting to pay off. So, the chocolate strawberries are "ichigo" or if you have Japanese language set installed, it's ‚¢‚¿‚². Hmm. A good test to see if Radio can handle Japanese posts?

I know I mentioned this a few days ago, but these chocolates were REALLY good. They are basically dehydrated strawberries dipped in white chcocolate. Mmmmm...

So, I had to scan the package. It comes packaged in a little paper box not a whole lot unlike a box you would see for holding rice or other dish.
