As part of the AOSA (Atsugi Officer's Spouse Association) I have the opportunity to join in once a month in a cooking club with local Japanese women. They rotate every other month (one month we cook for them and teach them how to make an "American style" meal and the following month they cook for us and teach us a Japanese style meal). This month, it was their turn. So we learned how to make Bento Boxes, which are basically their "lunch box" that they send with their children to school. They were VERY involved and a lot of it was based around the art and how "cute" they could make it. It was an awesome experience and I'm really looking forward to next month when we get to teach them how to make a Thanksgiving feast! (We're doing it in October because November will be their turn. :))
Here are some pictures from the day.
