Thursday, 25 February 2021 MCO Lunner – Homemade Sukiyaki
We had a sumptuous lunner of Sukiyaki prepped by chef Sherilyn today! The Sukiyaki sauce is made from scratch and it’s actually very simple. Only 3 ingredients are required: soy sauce, mirin and sugar. We omitted sake as we don’t have it. This is really delish and not salty, unlike super salty ones from restaurants. …

Effects of Prolonged Home Quarantine on the Girls & Homecooked Meat-Free Dishes
While I can’t wait for the girls to return to school on 20 January, I’m also worried about their safety while they’re in school.
