Skirts and Mochi

zanthessI'm thinking of making mochi this week. Wondering what fillings I should use. I'm already head over heels for mochi ice cream, but am afraid to try the red bean paste.
Anyone else out there tried mochi?
In other news: FINALLY started on my "pleated" skirt I'd been pining over for 4 months or so. Everything is cut, just have to get the gumption to get out my sewing machine and go at it. It's really exciting to make something with a corset-type back, knowing that the more I skate, the tighter I can pull it. :D

on 2009-02-10 02:39 am (UTC)I bought some mini mochis today. two of 4 different flavors. red bean, taro, green tea, and sesame. I'm planning on doing a taste test with the hub either tonight or tomorrow.
I did pick up some rice flour, and am thinking of making some raspberry mochi for valentine's day. Cuz I hate buying stuff specifically made for v-day. :P
