So I taught my first class. I think it went pretty well. It was a little tough to get started but once I did things flowed pretty well. It is hard in this type of class, particularly the beginning, to keep everyone interested. There is a lot to cover and I am sure I saw a few yawns but the time I was finished. I spent time with everyone individually later on and that is probably more of my forte, working with people individually. Most of the people have general idea and some experience with what I was teaching and I think that helped a lot. Other than that I have just been working on some shots myself to fill in the free time. It definitely made the day go by faster with the class and I am happy about that.
Not too much excitement today. I did go to my local Japanese grocery store on the way home. They have a really big selection of yummy sushi and I got some for dinner. They have a really good bakery that makes somewhat normal things. I took some pictures of the shelves. There is a little bit of American stuff scattered around but I would say about 90% of the shelves look like what you see in the pictures. It makes shopping a little difficult. The American stuff is what is expensive because it is imported. The Japanese stuff is cheaper but I just can't figure out what most of it is or how I would go about cooking it. Check out the pictures and imagine trying to walk into a store and get some stuff for dinner. That is why I stick with Eggs and Cornflakes, you can't go wrong there.
p.s. I think the Japanese folks think I am just a little bit strange taking pictures in the grocery store.;)
