I have been away from MK for sometimes, was busy with relocating and settling down in new place. Now, our new home is in 90% live in condition going to start cooking in my new kitchen soon. I am so excited with new kitchen appliances that I always wanted to have.
Another big thing in my life is the arrival of my 3rd baby! Eeh em, I am thrilled to announce the arrival of my 3rd baby - first cookbook: Japanese Home Cooks, will hit the bookstores in April 2012. It is a bilingual (Chinese and English) cookbook with 65 healthy and easy Japanese home-cook recipes, worth to mention is that all ingredients called for are available outside Japan.
It took me over two years from the conceived of idea to finalising the proof for printing. I must say it was not easy for me having had to juggle cookbook (cooking, photo shooting and writing up recipes), house chores and looking after two demanding children - an infant (he is now 2y5m) and a toddler (he is now 4y1m). Many times, my model or prop went missing in the middle of shooting or extra hands appeared in the frame. No matter how, I thank my family members for being supportive in their own and unique way.
Here are photo of some recipes included in the book. For more details about the content, please check out Y3K Publisher's blog or email to y3krecipes@gmail.com should you have any enquiries.
