  • Teaching has it's rewards...

    Just a few of the cards my students made for me. One of my classes was sweet enough to write me 'Thank You' cards for teaching them this year. :P A little 'Thank you, I enjoyed your class' is such great encouragement. It really made my day!

  • Homemade gifts

    Last week, an old lady who I teach English to gave me some homemade plum wine (ume shu) and pickled plums (ume-boshi). She used no preservatives or coloring to pickle the plums! Just salt and a fragrant herb. They were soooo sour 88|wow, it took me a long time to eat one, and my tongue lost feeling! Michael really likes them though, and has nearly eaten them all. The plum wine was a lot more palatable for me! Although very very concentrated and sweet-sour, it was yummy mixed with ice and watered down a bit. These are very traditional pickles and wine in Japan. But mostly women like to drink the sweet plum wine.
