“In another mirror world don is a girl with a horse rocinante living on a ranch”

“In another mirror world don has a giant dog named rocinante”

Yeah well in another mirror world don is a broke college student with her beloved fish named rocinante. Yes she comes home to her shitty dorm and feeds hin flakes while telling him about her day. Also yes she has him there against dorm regulations but she will not leave her trusty steed at home.

Katsuobushi, The Dried Fermented Fish Rock That's in Almost Every Japanese Dish You've Ever Eaten

You've tasted it. You love it. But you never knew it was covered in mold and hard as a rock. Discover the essence of Japanese cooking.

This probably doesn't look tasty to you. After all, it looks like a chunk of dirty wood:

With the above pic in mind, try not to freak out when I have to tell you, if you love Japanese food, you've eaten that thing many, many times. It's a dried fermented fish product called katsuobushi, and its flavor is the backbone of traditional Japanese cooking.

Katsuobushi is probably familiar to you in a different form: those papery-looking fish flakes sprinkled on top of cold tofu or okonomiyaki. But it has a less visible, very important role as a main ingredient in dashi, the broth used in traditional Japanese food. Unlike the soup stock used in most other countries, dashi takes only minutes to make – but that's only after the weeks or months it takes to produce katsuobushi.

Like many traditional foods and crafts, old-fashioned ways of using katsuobushi have been replaced by modern shortcuts in many homes, but the real thing is still hanging on and even spreading across the world.

I can FINALLY publish this to the world! My 30 second film, animated traditionally in the Fall 2016 semester, brought to color over winter break. I've made a lot of progress as an animator since this project but I'm happy to have something to show for my hard work that's cleaned up and colored. :> Enjoy!

I painted my nails to stop biting them but now I just keep eating nail polish flakes like a fish because I keep forgetting it’s there
