Emmy's Sea Grapes

[minoanmiss]

Okay, I need to post something fun and life-affirming. Have a lovely video from one of the Youtube channels I follow.

"SEA GRAPES Umibudo - popping bubbles seaweed - Taste Test" (Watch on YouTube)

Hooray for adventurous eating by a cheerful personable host!

That was delightful, thank you! I never heard of umibudou but now I want to try them. Loved the seaweed "dance."

Are her videos all about food?

[minoanmiss]

I think they are all about food. She has sub-interests: weird recipies, MREs (!), exotic fruits, etc. I know so much about MREs now because she's so delightful to watch.

She is wonderful, thank you!

[minoanmiss]

Isn't she? I should probably get over my shyness and tell her so. :)

[cjsmith]

I don’t know you at all but I am presumptuously popping in here to say I ADORE your user icon. :)

[baranduin]

Thank you! I saw it on Mary Doria Russell’s facebook recently.

I love Emmy! She has such a cute, bubbly personality.

[minoanmiss]

True! So true! And she's so adventurous yet methodical. I love how she examines and describes new foods.

[cjsmith]

Oh she is superb! She has a spark, plus a real passion for food, and she’s very good at describing things (she doesn’t just say “mmm so good” but explains what she perceives). Thank you for sharing this!

[minoanmiss]

I love how well she describes things. I should probably tell her so. And you are most welcome! Did the package arrive yet?

[cjsmith]

It did! Just yesterday! I had to open it and smell it and yeah, isoamyl acetate but there’s more complexity there in this case, so that’s nifty. :) Thank you! Did you get the check?

[minoanmiss]

Yay it arrived!

I got the check, I just need to deposit it.

[cjsmith]

Excellent! Thanks again. The bottle is in my baking stash now!

[cjsmith]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO we (hitchhiker and I) tried the rosehip jelly candy. AWESOME!!! Thank you for including it - that was so thoughtful! Teach meeeeeeeeee!!! ♥ ♥

[minoanmiss]

Oh awesome! I'm so glad you like it!

I cannot thank you enough for posting her video last week. Totally a rabbit hole for me. THANKS!!

[minoanmiss]

I know! she has so many videos, all awesome! You are totally welcome!

[clevermanka]

She's adorable and now I want to try them!

[minoanmiss]

Next time I go by the Japanese store near me I'm definitely scanning the seaweed selection.
