autumn chocolate, kanten & (-_-)zzz

Meiji Chocolate just came out with a new dark chocolate called "Noir" (which I think means black or dark in French). It has 63% of cacao and is also a Venezuela Blend. Delish!

I've tried a new kanten recipe, you're supposed to use cappellini (angel hair pasta), but I used soba (buckwheat) fusilli pasta with tomato sauce using tomato kanten. Satoshi liked it and he didn't even notice it had kanten in it!

Satoshi apparently has a crooked nasal passage, so this causes him to snore (LOUD!!) It doesn't help when he also has had a couple of drinks (even LOUDER!!)...To solve this problem, we got this pillow for him because it is supposed to cut down on snoring, by propping up your head and neck...I don't think anything except a nose operation will help...

We also bought these Tempur futon overlays. You put them on top of the shikibuton (bottom comforter). The Tempur mattress and pillow mold to your body - giving you a feeling of weightlessness. When you first lie down on it, it feels quite firm.

However, with your body temperature and weight, the material softens and molds to the exact contours of your body. Tempur is a high-tech material originally developed by NASA for the U.S. Space Program.

It's great...now if I can only stop the snoring...
