Usually my host-mom, my host-brother's wife and I go out for lunch, but yesterday, my host-father joined us too.
It was nice as I hadn't seen him in many years.
Lunch was at Minokichi...my host-father had enjoyed eating at their restaurant in Tokyo but somehow yesterday's lunch was a bit lacking (according to him).
We (three) enjoyed the different courses though.
I chose their peach cake. This had meringue as well as whipped cream and nice slices of sweet peaches.
My host-mom bought us these tea gelatin sweets from Nakamura Tokichi.
The weather this week has been so gloomy (humid and gross), so it was nice spending time with my host-family.
I'm grateful we get together at least a couple times a year to catch-up with each other.
Thank you!

Looks good, even though it didn't live up to expectations.
we thought it was okay Kirk, my host-father thought it would be better :)
Take care.
