inspired by my newly acquired book – sushi slim, i have been playing with some new suishi creations…

 

okra and ume (finely diced japanese plums), spicy salmon (dice salmon sashimi and mix with eel sauce, japanese mayo and chili powder) and tobiko (crab roe), fried japanese pumpkin slices (drizzled with salt and pepper and lemon juice), sliced egg roll (seasoned with dashi and sugar) – they make fast and simple yet delicious dinner for me and mr candlelight.  yum!

with the help of the children, making sunday dinner is always full of fun!  these were what we had the sunday before last:

homemade nacho chips (from corn tortilla) and avocado gaucamole; german sausages in onion gravy…

 

cheese baked pumpkin stuffed big shell pasta on cherry tomatoes…

 

it was such a feast!

we spent our father’s day yesterday with ice-skating with daddy!  siu momo was surprisingly good at it and was literally skating/walking on the ice by herself soon.  di di was also very proud of himself.  good job, daddy!  we love you!
