wonderful halloween cookies! :)
ReplyDeletethey were delicious too- can't remember who made them, so I can't share the recipe, I only took the photo ;)
ReplyDeleteI wish we could join you guys this year. Have fun!
ReplyDeletewish you could join us too- maybe someday you will be in Hiroshima when we are having a get together and we can finally meet you and your family- take care!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to take a look through your Flickr photos from the Halloween event 2 years ago. I think my wife and daughter were in a couple of the pics, since they attended the event with friends. Unfortunately, I couldn't take time off work to join them in Japan at that time. We went to Japan last March but only spent a couple of days in Hiroshima. I'll definitely be in touch when we're there again. Are you on Google+, by the way? I followed the Twitter accounts @jjwalsh and @japanmama, but I'm no longer on Twitter, so I lost contact with a few people.
ReplyDeletehey bruce- I've missed you on twitter, yes I am on google plus and linked in as well, hope we can reconnect somehow- take care & hope you have a fun halloween wherever you are!
ReplyDeleteWe have to cancel today sorry- weather too wet. Join us tomorrow night in same Sorazaya park from 4:30-8pm for Halloween fun (bring flashlights!)
