Three Months to go!

We have three months left living in Hokkaido before moving back to Yukon Canada.

These days, many visitors are gracing our doorstep plus I have been busy teaching, learning pottery and now...taking Japanese cooking lessons!

For my very first lesson I made a fried omelet roll (tamagoyaki) and boiled spinach with a peanut sauce (hourensou no ohitashi pinatsudare).

Before eating we say "itadakimasu!" which literally means, "I receive".
After eating we say "gochisousamadeshita" which means "It was a real feast".

Here I am with my super talented cooking teacher, Keiko.



I am looking forward to trying some of the recipes I am learning in my homeland very soon.
