Unhealthy things have the effect of lifting the spirits. [Day 36]

I was feeling irritable yesterday.
I was sleepy, and there was also a slightly frustrating incident.

Frustrated... so frustrated.
Ah, I want to clear this frustration away!!

So, I contacted someone I always consult when I'm worried about something.
I had them listen to me, and although I felt crushedfor a moment (it wasn't that person's fault), I seem to have hit rock bottom.

Anger started to bubble up. (Why?)

It seems that when people go as far as they can, they bounce back up.
At times like this, I remember the koala from the movie SING.

I'll definitely show them.

So, I decided to make Revenge Tonpeiyaki. (Why?)

My lack of naming sense...
In short, it's just regular tonpeiyaki.

I haven't really cleared my head, so I decided to drink today.
It would be nice if I could drink beer, but unfortunately, I'm like a child who can't handle carbonation, so I take out the apricot liqueur.

This is for when my mood is down.
I need the sweetness to comfort my heart. (I really am feeling down, you know)

As I wrote earlier, I can't drink carbonation, so I'll have a glass on the rocks.

Soooo sweeeet!!
...Sigh. This sweetness is the best.

Things that are bad for you have the effect of lifting your spirits. (According to Amika's research)

I sip on some apricot liqueur and start making tonpeiyaki.

I stir-fry pork in a frying pan with salt and pepper, then dump in some shredded cabbage.
I don't want to go through the trouble of shredding it myself, so I use the popular 'pre-cut vegetables' as a substitute.
Once the cabbage is stir-fried to a certain point, I take it out onto a plate and crack an egg into the empty pan.
I spread it out flat, add the pork and cabbage from before, roll it up loosely, and it's done.

To finish, I drizzle on as much sauce and mayonnaise as I like.

Pickled red gingeris prepared, and it's complete.

While drinking, I snack on my instanttonpeiyakicreation.
I toast to the sky, thinking of the person who first thought to put sauce and mayo on what is essentially an omelet.
Thank you, whoever you are.
Thanks to your inspiration, my drinks go down easy again today.

Ah, delicious.

Eating it with pickled red ginger adds a spicy kick that's addictive. The kids ate it up in no time, too.

This is actually great since you can get plenty of vegetables in, too. (Positive)

I'll make it again.

With a tipsy head, the only thing I could think about was what to put in the next tonpeiyaki.
I'm also taking suggestions for recommended ingredients!

Things that are bad for you really do have the effect of lifting your spirits. After all.
