Tofu Piccata
This month's "Megumi's Garden Lunch" menu was Tofu Piccata. Piccata is a dish where you take cheese, egg, and various vegetables and mixed them and then bake. Although it is usually made with meat or fish, today the Piccata was made with supple and fluffy tofu to make a nicely wrapped Piccata. You can even make a delicious Piccata with vegetables like broccoli or zucchini.

When you are living in America, it is pretty difficult to feel and experience the Japanese New Year, but we were able to enjoy many activities that had to do with the New Year thanks to the teachers who set up them up. Traditional Japanese New Year games like “Kaki-zome” (calligraphy), “Fuku-warai” (a blindfolded ‘pin the tail on the donkey’ type of game), “karuta” (a Japanese card game), and “making kagami-mochi” (a New Year’s decoration), were done to create the atmosphere of a traditional Japanese New Year for everyone.

Activity Lunch
This month’s activity lunch was peeling orange peels by ourselves. Oranges are fruit of the winter, and they are very delicious with lots of nutrition to help fight off colds. The kitchen staff’s instruction to us was “You can peel it in the way you like to, whether it’s from the bottom of the orange where it’s flat, or at the top where the ‘green belly-button’ is.” Everyone did a great job unpeeling the oranges fluidly, and ate them (with yummy sounds).

New Year's Special Menu Day 2
The second day of the Japanese New Year’s dishes, was cute looking pink and yellow painted sushi rice, cooked red kidney beans, and soup that resembled a New Year’s soup that has sticky rice cakes (mochi) and vegetables. This soup, called “Ozouni” usually has mochi in it, but for this school lunch the kitchen staff put the easy to eat “hanpen” (pounded fish cake) in it instead. It was a fun lunch with the taste of the mood of Japanese New Year.

Field Trip
Kujira (Kindergarten) students went on the first field trip. Students had been excited since in the morning. On the way to the farm, they were still so excited with their friends in the cars. At the farm, they rode on a choo-choo train, met animals at the petting zoo, and so on. The most favorite time among everything is a lunch time, of course! They loved to have lunch from home. Everybody had so much fun.
