Yes, I'm still here.

Sorry, but I have zero interest in cereal and milk. Actually, one
of the main reasons I enjoy living in Japan is Japanese food!

To see if there is any interest, I'll repost my RiceReport to see
if there is any interest. Now I'm learning about noodles and I guess
I'll make up a NoodleReport when I get done :-)

I've already sent in my vote on what to call the group. But I don't
think the name really matters as much as having the group.
