Rice Bran Bags;

 (posted; Soba Noodle page) 
             
       Hello friends; I do wish you all are doing fine whatever the extreme weather; 
              cold or hot, whichever you have.  
The other day, I've finally made 2 Rice Bran Bags from my husband's request after hesitating for a bit of long time. They are for the use of making his soba-tools burnished and also preventing soba-dough from sticking to the table or the rolling-pins.
So sorry for the brownish pictures; it was a cloudy day and it was due to the electric bulbs color of the lights (not the fluorescent bulbs) in his hobby room.  

      Soba making table and rolling pins he needs to wipe with the rice bran bag. 

Showing how he does (mind you, he never help me for the house chores p;)
I haven't used sewing machine after making these covers for his tools in the picture below about 3 and a half years ago when he started making soba. The machine is a really old one p;)  We need  to roast rice bran before putting them in the bag. 

Thank you very much for stopping by, Love You Always;

  6. Dearest Miyako,
    You are a fascinating team but it did work out in the end; your husband managed to make you sew his Rice Bran Bags! Good for you and I loved your confession about your husband not doing house chores. Well, my Dad for one never used to lift a finger only till my Mom got really sick...
    What can we do?
    Hugs,
    Mariette

  12. Hello dearest Miyako,
    I could not find a comment form in your recent post, so I write to you here. It does not matter if you do not always find time to comment - we still can not forget you: o))
    For me, making soba noodles sounds a bit complicated, but interesting.
