I think homage is misspelled? A friend is very into penguins. I may have to get her some of these . . .

I have had them. The ghosts too. They are just like the mice - sort of a whipped chocolate in a denser chocolate shell. Very cute, and quite good, but not as good (to my thinking) as the plain chocolates, which have amazing and varied flavors.

ETA that I would definitely give them as a gift to someone who loves penguins. They are quite good. For myself, though, I would buy one of the boxes of assorted chocolates.

The "Boy For Sale" part really used to scare/upset me.

It is funny the way we always come back to the same topics.

Good lord. You know what I meant. I am not implying that sushi should taste like chicken. But many types of sushi do not or should not have a strong fish taste. I've had sushi that does or was supposd to (mackerel, I think) and I don't like it at all. When I say, "fishy," I mean the smell or flavor that comes from not-fresh fish or those types of fish that smell and taste that way even when fresh.

I always preferred Yama to Tomoe.

I've been to them all. Tomoe wins. Yama's draw is the size of the pieces. Otherwise, their fish can't fuck with Tomoe's.

28 of 50 in 19 minutes. Ugh.

I know what you meant; I didn't imply it should taste like chicken... hyperbole, a/k/a my language.

I like the mackerel. Its naturally salty, as well. But then, I also like harring with onions from a jar.

Which very much upsets my wife.

Sushi is also a topic that is discussed on a regular basis, so I think all posts have been derivative today. Yesterday too, since we were talking about food and carbs v. protein. It's a pathetic never-ending cycle of redundancy.

My boyfriend looked longingly at some herring twice this weekend. Thankfully, he was not compelled to buy it.

As if Rochester wasn't bad enough.

Try critiquing the grammar used in the posts. It'll make you feel better.
