I knew there are doll fetishes. This is real news in Fukuoka, A guy fell in love with a mannequin and tried to steal it. but he was arrested. This is that mannequin. I supposed it could be someone real one, but she looks very doll-like.
I am not a mayorer though, I like to eat mayonnaise. I have a bad image for mayonnaise because of its high calories. But recently there are some lower calorie mayonnaise, I feel easy to enjoy mayonnaise more than before. Not only for salad, mayonnaise is very useful food, do you know that? The biggest mayonnaise maker in Japan "Kewpie" shows such good ideas on their website. For example, when you cook fried rice, add mayonnaise and egg first so the rice wont'be gooey (sticky each other). For pancakes, it is good too. Mayonnaise makes pancakes very light but crispy. Use mayonnaise instead of egg and make "shrimp fry" and cook it the micro oven. You can make lower calorie, crispy and easy shirimp fry. Mix curry powder and flour, then coat the chicken with that. Cook with oil and add some mayonnaise in the end. This is very easy and delicious spicy mild chiken. Kids will love it.
I am working at a non teritory office. I really like this working style. My favorite seat is a counter seat by a window. I can see Tokyo Bay, Rainbow Bridge, and now I am looking at Hamarikyu. What can you see from your office? What are you looking at now?*

To answer your question about what I can see from my office now, that would be nothing. I work in a windowless room, in the dark. However, if I peek out of my door and look through my manager's office, I see the Scottsdale Airpark airfield, landing airplanes, and the McDowell Mountains in the distance (east of Phoenix, Arizona).
I'm a big fan of mayonaise as well, though I get an upset stomach if I eat too much of it.
When I was growing up, my mother didn't buy regular mayonaise -- she bought a mayonaise-like product called "Miracle Whip." (I wonder if they sell that in Japan.) "Miracle Whip" is basically mayonaise mixed with sugar and spices, and is considered a very "WASPy" product in America. ("W.A.S.P." as in White Anglo-Saxon Protestant.)
I agree that mayonaise can be useful for cooking. My mother used to make chocolate cakes with Miracle Whip as well, though people familiar with this product may find that strange. Still, mayonaise is just egg and oil, which are usually in cakes already. My mother's Miracle Whip cakes were always very moist and rich.
