[ the video shows Japan in the kitchen wearing his cooking wear, cutting something flat. Taking a triangular piece which he puts in a oriental style plate. The food looks like this ]
According to the calendar, it is June, so I thought I would make some Minazuki. If there is one thing I am glad about this mansion, is that there are all sorts of ingredients. It is practically possible to many any food there is here.
If anyone would like to eat some, please do. I made many so everyone can eat.

[video]
Date: 2010-06-16 03:21 am (UTC)The bottom is made out of Uiro, a sort of chewy steamed cake and the top are red beans. It is a traditional Japanese confectionery.

You're a whole new world to me, grandpa.

Date: 2010-06-17 09:10 pm (UTC)[ Japan smiles back ]
So are you to me, Alex-san.
[video]
Date: 2010-06-18 12:17 pm (UTC)I'd ask how you made them, but if I tried it I'd probably end up setting something on fire.

Date: 2010-06-18 01:24 pm (UTC)[ Japan sets the camera on the side and continues cutting the pieces while continuing the conversation ]
There are ways to make this with a microwave, if you would like to know.

Date: 2010-06-18 01:36 pm (UTC)[Even though he's been known to explode things in microwaves. There may have been an Incident with eggs. On more than one occasion. But let's not talk about that!]
[video]
Date: 2010-06-18 02:16 pm (UTC)[ Japan will one day create unexplodable eggs for people like you. ...Or something like that ]
[video]
Date: 2010-06-18 02:30 pm (UTC)Anyhow, let's say that the kitchen is getting close now. Alex grins again.]
Won't know without trying.
[video]
Date: 2010-06-18 02:36 pm (UTC)I am always available to show you how.
[ Japan takes few pieces and mounts them on a plate, while getting some tea ready ]
[video/action]
Date: 2010-06-18 02:52 pm (UTC)Thanks.
Stand by. Incoming.
[He pushes open the door to the kitchen.]
[ action ]
Date: 2010-06-18 03:11 pm (UTC)Good timing, Alex-san.
[ on the kitchen table is a plate with few pieces of the Minazuki on it ]
I was just pouring the tea.
[ action ]
Date: 2010-06-19 11:12 am (UTC)[He bows carefully at the waist, then straightens and tries to remember if there are any important rules he should follow for tea with grandpa. The mansion's illusion is leaving him high and dry as regards Japanese etiquette and whether Japan will be offended if it isn't followed.]
[ action ]
Date: 2010-06-20 03:07 am (UTC)You do not need to force yourself. I understand your culture is different.
[ But grandpa does seem happy that Alex at least did it. Unlike some of his other grandchildren sob ]
Please, sit down. [ he gestured to the table with the Minazuki and tea on it ]

Date: 2010-06-16 03:22 am (UTC)I would be glad to show you how. Was there anything Ryuho-san dislikes again? My old age sometimes messes up who likes what at time.
no subject
Date: 2010-06-16 04:44 am (UTC)I don't think he likes sweet things or fried things. Maybe the healthier the better.
no subject
Date: 2010-06-16 05:51 am (UTC)Hmm..Maybe Udon or Soba? Or how about Nikujyaga?
no subject
Date: 2010-06-16 06:07 am (UTC)Isn't Udon good for the summer?
no subject
Date: 2010-06-16 11:21 am (UTC)Udon and Soba works for all seasons.

Date: 2010-06-16 04:06 am (UTC)[Ganta picks up the camera and moves over to his desk. There are several stars and frogs, and what looks like it might be either a cat or a dog. The stars are pretty good. The frog is a little lopsided, and the cat/dog/whatever it is looks like he had to refold it several times.]
They're not that great. I think I'll get the hang of it if I practice more, though.
no subject
Date: 2010-06-16 10:58 am (UTC)Practice does makes perfect. If you will like I am always willing to practice with you, Ganta-kun.
