Weekly Wrap Up (11.17.2024 to 11.24.2024)

I started posting these, a while back but they kind of fell by the wayside. I guess some of it just got covered in regular posting, and some of it ends up on the other blog, if I bother. Probably, I decided I didn't really care. But maybe I should care. So here we are. I have actually done a few of my "wishlist todo" projects this week. I have recently been hardcore digging through my too many bookmarks problem in Firefox. This has been an ongoing effort for a few months now, but I started on a phase two…

おにぎり (Onigiri) aka, “Rice Balls”

I've been doing some experimenting recently making おにぎり (Onigiri) aka, "rice balls".  I've been taking it very literally as being a ball and have not added any Nori wrapping yet.  I've been just sticking with variations of tuna and mayo that I read about online.  It's a pretty simple and easy dish to make, and I end up with enough for 2-3 meals from one batch, which is nice.  Cook a cup (uncooked) or rice int he rice maker, dump it in a bowl with a can or two of tuna, spoon some mayo in, add whatever flavoring I want…
