Surprise Dish and sweets!

Rice rolls Norimaki by my Mom

Apple Tart by my sister

When Taro and I came home, these 2 dishes are put on the table. My parents brought them to our place for dinner!!! Lucky us :D

Their quest for cooking is surely inheriting me and Taro in the future......

Soy Milk Pudding

This is his favourite Big soy milk pudding lately.

Drizzled Maple syrup instead of caramel sauce.

( I think it would be healthier than burnt sugar caramel. it might be just my illusion though :P)

YUMMY!
