- Roast beef
My boys, including my husband, are not big fans of turkey. So, I always cook
roast beef. More than that! there is no large enough oven to roast turkey in
Japan! So, that is another good excuse not to cook turkey.

- Green bean casserole
This is the most popular dish at my home. 1 3qt baking dish is not enough for
my boys. I always bake 2 dishes. While we eat the first dish, I bake the second
dish. By the time we finish the first one, the second one is ready to be served.
Although they are not vegie-lovers at all, this is the special dish!
Unfortunately, Campbell's cream of mushroom soup can is not available at regular
super market in Japan. So, I make the dish from scratch with milk, butter and fresh
mushroom. Actually, it taste better than the one I use the canned soup.

- Sweet bread
Since my husband used to live in Hawaii, he loooooves Hawaiian sweet bread.
So, freshly baked sweet bread must be there. My boys eat the bread so fast!
30sec. after I took the bread out from the oven, they finish half of it.
Again, I need to bake 2.

These three are "must be served" dishes. Other than them, I randomly serve mac & cheese, green salad, creamed corn and so on. I will cook those dishes for Christmas, too. My oven will be so busy to bake all those dishes! I hope that I won't burn any of them.
As some of you may already know, we are working so hard on this unique obi project! Look at them! They are not traditional obi you know! Keep checking the following page, we will try to make more unique obi!
*Even if the obis are sold out, please contact us if you want them. We will make it for you.
