I cooked for the first time in Japan....

Hi my loyal followers.  So, Japan is well known for it's combinis or convenience stores like they call them in the states.  They have them everywhere, and what's great about them is that you can do so many things there (which I will cover in another blog post) along with buying fairly tasty food for a decent price.  As a result, I often find myself grabbing something quick to eat when i don't go out to eat or eat at work. 

This convenience has made it very difficult to get motivated to cook.  However, for the first time I busted out my pan to cook my first meal in Japan.  As you can see, I stuck to the basics -- spam, eggs and rice.  Yes, I am from hawaii and I love my spam.  Here is a picture of the before, eggs, instant rice from korea, a bag of spinach that I  bought from a combini around the corner from my house, two eggs which I bought from a combini as well and 3 slices of spam.  Food here, especially ones of great quality like this meal right here can often run pretty expensive.  So I'm glad I was able to make it for myself.

  Here is the after picture, pretty good right?
