The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out The main part of today's lunch is one of my favorite easy-to-make dishes, okonomiyaki. If you zoom in on that picture you can see what looks like earthworms on top of it - those are squid tentacles. When making the recent batch of calamari I cut the longer tentacles off so they wouldn't tangle when I cooked them, and they ended up as a topping here.

I also have calamari, simmered shiitake mushrooms, steamed broccoli, and dorayaki. The dorayaki - a pancake sandwich with sweet red bean paste in the middle - was made with regular Aunt Jemima pancake mix. So inauthentic, but also so quick & easy to make.
