Japanese plum wine cake 梅酒のケーキ

2012-01-25T01:23:00.001+09:00

Everyone knows I love to cook but, I don’t often share my recipes. I have decided to change that starting with this delicious cake. ENJOY!

3 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup shortening
2 2/3 cups brown sugar
4 eggs
1/2 cup milk
Japanese plum wine ６tablespoons
Japanese plums that were used in making the plum wine chopped 6

Directions

Do not preheat the oven. Grease 10 inch tube pan and line bottom with wax paper or parchment paper.
Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the butter, shortening, and sugar on low speed for 10 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, blending well after each addition. Alternately add the flour mixture and milk, mixing well. Add the vanilla and lemon extracts.
Add plum wine ( I say 6 tablespoons but it is up to your taste)
Add chopped plums to batter
Pour batter into the prepared pan. Set the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C. Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of cake comes out clean. Allow cake to cool in the pan for 1 hour. Remove to a cake rack and cool for at least 3 hours.

Groovy Hip Hop Baby!

2011-12-20T13:41:00.000+09:00

I feel so bad for those who don't hear what I hear nor feel what I feel when I hear certain Hip Hop songs. You know, that kind of Marvin Gaye- "Turn Off The Lights" kind of vibe. How did you feel when you 1st heard A Tribe Called Quest- Bonita Applebum? I was wishing I was swaying right along with them in the video. I understand the politics of radio and record labels which, makes me love (free) Satellite and Internet Radio stations, but what's coming out of the air waves is sickening, literally. I won't even go into seeing children imitate the music videos. So I offer you this alternative:

I recently wrote and article for a site called IndiePundit.com.

Here is an excerpt from the article:

Wake up America! You should all know by now about the The Feinstein Amendment 1031(e) . At this point, the House and Senate have both passed their versions of the bill (H.R.1540 andS.1867), but they have disagreement on several provisions, including a provision opposed by the Obama Administration that would require the military to indefinitely detain terrorism suspects, including American citizens living in the U.S., without charge or trial............

A letter to my Old Earth

2011-11-19T17:45:00.001+09:00

My Grandma passed away. I didn't have the chance to say goodbye in person so....

A face that is always on my mind,

A smile I have seen a million times,

Two eyes that would light up the sky at night,

One last battle you could not fight,

The day was long, then night then morn.

I knew that soon you would be gone,

I clasped your hand so warm in mind,

Soon we would be out of time,

To stay with us you fought so hard,

A million pieces went my heart,

Now a photo I look at to see your smile,

I keep your name on my speed dial,

A mental video to hear your voice,

This I do.... I have no choice.,

But great memories I will always keep with me,

Your love in my heart for eternity,

I never got to say goodbye,

To understand why, I can but try,

Waiting in heaven from this moment on,

'Till god asks you to bring me home....

I love you Grandma xxx

DJ E SMOOVE PRESENTS - HEAVY D - NOTHING BUT LOVE TRIBUTE MIX

2011-11-12T00:42:00.001+09:00

DJ E SMOOVE PRESENTS - HEAVY D - NOTHING BUT LOVE TRIBUTE MIX by djsmoove-1

The only rival to his larger-than-life appearance was the oversize delivery of his soulful rhyme,Heavy D, along with a trio known as The Boyz (Glen Parrish, Troy Dixon, and Edward Ferrell) racked up a string of hits during the early part of 1990s. But more importantly, their successes helped to set the foundation for other artists to follow and ushered what many called the golden age of hip-hop. He was a relentlessly positive rapper. You and your mom could both like him. And this was true to the very end, even when it came to his Twitter page. RIP!

In memory of this Hip-Hop Pioneer, one of Tokyo’s top DJs, DJ E SMOOVE has put together a tribute mixtape that is sure to bring back those good memories of The Overweight Lover. You can listen to it here or scroll down to find the download link.

Hatervision: Hulu in Japan from my living room!

2011-10-27T02:27:00.001+09:00

Hulu may not have a new owner yet, but it does have an international presence now that it has come to Japan! I was scanning through the video app channels on my Sony Bravia and noticed a new icon. Upon further inspection, I realized it was the Hulu icon! Here is a video of the Hulu experience in Japan:

Posted via email from OnMugen's posterous

Overall the list looks more like Netflix than Hulu's free or Plus services in the US do. With my service I can stream the content to my Android phone, PC or TV. They appear to have a decent selection thus far and, for ¥1,480 per month ($19.19 US), it seems pretty reasonable. Check the Press Release for a full list of content providers signed up so far or just hit the source link to try out a free month so you can decide whether or not it's worth your yen.
