Bangladesh food in Japan
Mood:  hungry
Sunday is a "light jacket" day! Yahoo. It feels a little warm in the sunshine and that is wonderful. I went to a cooking class today with my friend, Didik. Our friend, Siddique-san was the teacher. He taught us to make two different types of curries from Bangladesh. Also a red lentil dish that consists of mashed red lentils mixed with shredded cabbage, spices and a bit of flour. Then this thick mixture is spooned into hot oil and deep-fried. Wow, what a taste sensation! We had 6 cooking stations of about 5-6 people at each station. We cooked all our own food. What fun. My group had two women who spoke very good English. One is in a "language club" and she has studied a little of 10 different languages. The other woman is an English teacher at both elementary and junior high levels. We had much in common, and i hope to see them again. I gave out all my name cards again. It's a bit overwhelming having so many people wanting to have dinner or lunch with me to practice their English. I give them my card and encourage them to email me. If they email, then i put them on my email list and will invite them to a party at my apartment. I can't possibly go to all the dinners that I'm invited to. I'd weigh 200 pounds before i leave Japan!
