Special bento box for sports festival
Happy Saturday! 🌞 Another big typhoon No.18 didn’t hit Tokyo this time, so sports festival called “Undou-kai” was held at my son’s kindergarten today.
Usually, Japanese moms wake up earlier (than usual) and prepare special lunch box packed with their kids’ favorite foods. Since this was my first time to prepare this lunch box, I cooked these easy finger foods that my son likes; Inari-zushi, potato croquette, roll sushi with natto (fermented soybeans) and Karaage (Japanese-style fried chicken). I also put fruit jelly, steamed veggie, cheese and caramelized sweet potato as side dishes. 😋
Visiting the Nedu/Nezu shrine
My father was visiting this week so we went to the local shrine called the Nedu/Nezu shrine.
The shrine was so beautiful for scenery. There are Japanese garden, pond with carps and turtles and red color torii gates! ⛩ Highly recommend!
Peach time!
Homemade peach roll cake with using 3 different peaches 🍑😋
I love peaches!
Taiyaki
Do you know this fish shape waffle? This is called Taiyaki (鯛焼き). “Tai (鯛)” means a carp and “Yaki (焼き)” means stir-fry or bake in Japanese. To make this shape, you need to buy special waffle machine. You can buy online or electric stores here in Japan to make at home or you can find Taiyaki shops at many places here in Japan. Usually, Taiyaki has red bean paste inside but some shops sell custard cream, matcha cream, sweet potato paste, Chocolate cream, Sesame cream etc. In this recipe, I introduce the traditional Taiyaki which has red bean paste inside. Enjoy!
9 months pregnant!
9 months pregnant now. Maybe my tummy is a bit small ?!
Our baby (My family call the baby Bebe-chan!) kicks my stomach a lot all day these days. Sometimes it hurts but that’s one of the precious memory in life.

Soymilk
Have you ever tasted soymilk? I usually buy soymilk at the market but I decided to make from scratch at home. I realized that homemade soymilk has more natural flavor from soybeans. If you need some sweetness, please add various sweeteners (i.e. Honey, Agave syrup, Brown sugar, Coconut sugar etc) and enjoy comparing those flavors. It’s FUN!
