That's 7 clementines (it's a large glass) and boy, were they delicious! If you're wondering about the glass, I got it when I opened a bank account here, because Japanese banks give away way cooler things than ipods!
When the weather turns cold, I occasionally, between stretches of not wanting to cook at all, become obsessed with thoughts of root vegetables and thick, hearty stew, a pot of which is currently bubbling away on my little gas range. Unfortunately, I always have trouble getting sauces to thicken (why is Cornstarch so cruel to me? where did I go wrong?) so I'm still waiting for that part of the "thick and hearty" to come about. But it smells delicious!
