Halloween

Halloween becomes popular in Japan. This year I can get the pumpkin in our local town.When I bought the pumpkin, I asked a staff, "After Halloween, can I eat it??"He answered "No, it is pigs feed. "This picture was taken last year.

--------------------------------------------------------------
By the way, when I was young, I don't know about Halloween. But I was known by a incident in the USA. A Japanese exchange student was on his way to a Halloween party when he mistook the address with his American friend.And the Japanese student was shot, who was just 16 years old. So he couldn't understand one word "Freeze." His American friend stopped. But he didn't stop.
I'm sorry it is the sad story today. But this time reminds me of this story.

Curry Party

Curry is one of Japan's most popular dishes. We cooked special carry in my younger son's preschool. We enjoyed to cook special carry at the preschool. And this curry was very nice.
Their teachers were very nice.






We make special curry sauce. So we beat butter until soft on the stove. After that we mix butter and flour.

We mix it and milk.
When I cooked source, I couldn't' do to cook softy source.




Some different spices are used to make curry.
When I usually cook curry and rice at home , I use curry source on the market. It is very easy to cook it. I know it is important to make homemade cooking for kids. But every day I can't do it.
