Dessert, made with green tea and bean paste (Usa, January 2006)
Japanese food is wonderful and one of my favorite parts about living here...that and all the ninjas I get to fight on the way to school.

Where's the hot dogs and hamburgers and french fries? OK, we understand we must take part of the Japanese culinary delights when we arrive! We will take on the challenge and experience the unknowns, but we draw the line on anything still moving!! - Love ya, Mom & Dad.
Awesome post, anything with "food" in the title has my attention! I think I could eat, and mostly enjoy, all the food you posted, with one exception. I don't think I could be content with bean paste for dessert. It just can't replace chocolate in my book ;) I'll make sure mom & dad bring plenty of American food to keep them from getting grouchy. Ha!
this is perhaps my favorite post yet.
;)
bounce is awesome! \o/
