I keep telling myself, "This is the last time!'' after spending hours in the kitchen icing cookies and then I see the expressions on their faces as I hand over the cookies. Then I sigh, "It's all worth it." I don't think people realize the time, energy, and sweat that goes into baking.
Not only did it take a whole day to decorate the cookies but an hour of Japanese writing lessons from Ms. Nomura, art lessons from Maha, and a whole day of practice just to make sure they were good enough for my sweet friend Gwen who was throwing a Yakudoshi party for her daughter Jennifer.
