Living Well on a Small Income in Japan 🇯🇵 | Payday Haul, Small Treats & Homemade Spring Rolls

Hi! I'm Tuma, a Japanese woman living in Tohoku, Japan. Enjoying the solo life. 🇯🇵 Payday — and income up this month, so I'm treating myself to something a little unfamiliar. Drugstore, liquor shop, shopping mall, and a fresh spring roll party that went messier than planned. Rice paper: harder than it looks. Avocado: crushed. Still delicious. 🌱 I hope you enjoy a payday that's about more than just paying bills — with me! ───────────────────── ▶ RECIPE ───────────────────── 🌿 Fresh Spring Rolls Ingredients (1 serving) ・Rice paper — as needed ・Chicken tenderloin — to taste ・Sake — a splash ・Water — a splash ・Avocado — 1 ・Cilantro — to taste ・Mitsuba — to taste ・Mizuna — to taste ・Sweet chili sauce — to taste ・Lemon juice — a squeeze Instructions ① Place chicken tenderloin in a heatproof container with sake and water.
