Yesterday Kuniko and I both had a midweek day off, so we slept in and headed into Kobe for some shopping. We did a big circle from her school in Motomachi to southern Sannomiya and back, and on the way picked up some new plates for entertaining, new alcohol for entertaining, and some new foods for entertaining. We’ve got a party coming up, and we want to get ready.
During our stop at Kaldi Coffee Farms, an import food store in Motomachi, I was lucky enough to find a bottle of bleu cheese dressing – something that hasn’t really caught on here. Can’t wait to try it on a salad in the near future and see if it is all I remember it to be.
I received some friendly encouragement from my old friend Nozaki sensei reminding me that recently I haven’t posted anything in Japanese, so I’ve got to get back in the habit. Posting in a foreign language is a great way to keep up your skills – I often recommend it to my students. So expect to see more Japanese posts in the near future.
