Memory Cloth — They've Got Eyes

Kay and I were in the old part of Kyoto, tired of walking we sat down. 

Across from us was a table selling food in small boxes.  It was very popular.  People would have a sample and buy one or more boxes. 

I got curious and went over to try it.  I popped some in my mouth- crunchy – salty -- fishy! 

I offered some in my palm to Kay.  She said "They've got eyes."

Only then did I look down and see a pile of ½ inch long baby eels with huge cartoon, googly eyes.
