Two Parties in One

January 21st, 2007, Advantage English held a party for Josh and Raul. Josh came back almost one year after he left Advantage English and Japan. He and his girlfriend, Angela came back to celebrate Michael's (Advantage English instructor) wedding! As for Raul's birthday, it was Yoko's idea, being the next day and all. So we had two parties in one. And what a party it was. Even though it was Sunday, over 40 people attended! Also, since it was a Sunday, we decided to have a light "supper" type atmosphere and Yoko cooked up what I call "peasant food" but of course it was delicious! Here's the menu, all cooked by Yoko Honda. Of course Yuko I. made the pizzas and Miki K. the cakes! Also a special thanks to Yuko I for her expertise in the kitchen frying up the pot stickers! Also thanks to Tomoko for helping with the dishes.
