Mika and I joined a Chinese cooking class at Ryukyu Middle school to learn how to cook traditional Chinese foods. Today we learned how to make Chinese dumplings and pork fried rice with vegetables. We enjoy cooking together and she always wants to be with me when I'm in the kitchen cooking anything. We had lots of fun and Mika ate until she was STUFFED. She fell asleep in the car before we even left the school parking lot. 
Mika was excited about wearing her new apron. It was a birthday gift from our friend Erika.
She liked the Taiwanese dolls that were displayed in the classroom. Mrs. Beall surprised us and gave one to her when we were about to leave.
Mika and Mrs. Beall. She is the cooking instructor and has become a friend since we brought Mika home in May. She's from Taiwan and they talk to each other in Mandarin. Mika surprised us on this day and counted to 10 in Mandarin Chinese! We didn't know she knew how to do that! Our goal is for her to keep her Chinese language and also use english.
