Hikari School -- December 17, 2009



We had this year's last lesson. First we made New Year's decoration
using a piece of charcoal and strings. Twisting a cord around a
charcoal and making a fancy knot was quite difficult.
Later we enjoyed tea ceremony of soba-cha and black soy beans.
Afterwards we had a fun chat over coffee.

Cooking -- December 15, 2009



We had a fun cooking with four ladies and five children.
Today's menu was Makunouchi-bento. It took us quite a lot
of time as Makunouchi-bento needs many dishes. All the
dishes being ready, we started making our own obento.
Children love onigiri.

Art Shodo -- November 26, 2009



We had the third workshop for making a scroll.
After neatly trimming both edges, we put
wooden bars on top and bottom of a scroll.
These were complicate works,but finally we
made it!
