Finally got my delivery of Japanese ingredients from the asian supermarket in the city. Some of the packaging seems so strange…what looks like a hard plastic bottle feels like a water balloon to the touch and there are cute pictures of random smiling characters everywhere. Panko breadcrumbs, shichimi spice, mirin, dashi, pickled ginger and every type of noodle known to man. How exciting, I can’t wait to try a recipe!

I am able to serve my family good meals
I have so far learned how to cook 6 different pastas and Japanese…tomorrow will be Filipino dishes followed by Thai. So far so good. I have been able to replicate the dishes at home. I have also been collecting recipes and tips from friends who are good cooks. I am now beginning to believe that I can actually become a real good cook…although if my recipe book disappears, I think I will also lose the ability to cook for now anyways…am happy…am excited that I am able to serve my family good meals. Hoping to improve…improve…improve…

I’m interested in trying new recipes
Now that my family has gotten used to me cooking since I’ve come home for summer vacation, they never cook! I’ve been getting great feedback from my parents and my loveones. She gave me the best compliment the other day… that my pasta salad is better than her moms! Wow! :D
I’m starting to run out of new recipes that I’m interested in trying… I want to keep trying new recipes until school starts up! So far I’ve been told that I’m a good cook! Yay!
