12th JαpAиιMαиgα Nιgнт Iмprєssισиs

I finally managed to upload the pictures of the JapAniMangaNight Event from last weekend! Unusually, I didn’t take many pictures this time and I didn’t feel like I have to… but for my memories I simply had to grab out my camera. Yep, as you will see at the end, I became again a maid  I love maid-outfits  It was a hard and intensive weekend; cooking Okonomiyaki, serving drinks and coffee, less sleep and lots of hungry people. But all in all: we had a lively time, I met nice new people and the event was – like always – a big success! I look forward to next year; bigger, better and even more fun!

I also listed up the other events, which I attended:

Are you ready for the Koneko Nr. 50?  May you remember; it has been already one year ago, when I got my Koneko from my friend. It was a birthday present, so I’ll had to cancel the subscribtion otherwise it would continue. I’d love to get Koneko for another year, but since I am a student and I’ll have to save my money for my school stuff like books, excursions, exam fee etc. (Furthermore I subscribed to Pink Box *g*) that’s why this will be the last Koneko~ I was just lucky to get a special 50th jubilee magazine! Enjoy it:

Yes, Asu rocks! The first time, I have heard about her on, was on Laurita’s Blog, I was very surprised to see her in Koneko, she’s very special and I love her extraordinary (fashion) style. Ohh, and I like her red hairs so much. Visit her Blog ^^

Would like to know more about Koneko? I listed all my entires about the trend magazine about japanese culture below:

Yesterday, I invited my Japanese and Japan-lover friends for another Takoyaki round!  (wow, my last Party has been a long time ago…) The picture above isn’t just a “Takoyaki”  no no, it is made with pancake dough, filled with a piece of banana and topped with melted chocolate, coconut crocant and green tea powder.  In a nutshell: it is SWEET Where does this idea came from? I sent a photo of my last Takoyaki Party to my cousin in Japan and she told me that it is possible to make sweet dessert Takoyaki. That’s why I thought of organizing my second Party with lots of little fake Takoyaki.

For the sweet dessert Takoyaki I used:

(loads of) chocolate in different flavours
Cornflakes, cereals, ground hazelnuts or almonds
Banana, raisin
Honey, maple syrup
Pancake dough (made with milk, egg, flour, sugar, baking powder)
For the topping, chocolate & green tea powder, colourful sprinkles, coconut flakes, melted chocolate, vanilla cream etc…

There are many things you can put in and on your Takoyaki, whether dried or fresh, raw fruits, chocolate or sprinkles – you can be inventive and make your own creations. As far as I am concerned, I prefer chocolate on the Pancake-Takoyaki than inside Furthermore, chocolate can burn quite quickly so you’ll have to be careful that it doesn’t get hard and black!  You’ll have to experiment a little bit. A yummy experience for chocoholics (like me )

Thank you guys for coming! I hope everybody had as much fun (and enough to eat) as me *LOL* Till next time! ♥♥♥

Let’s make Takoyaki ^^
