Greetings from New York!!!! Brenda seems she's half middle eastern...as her mother & she look like one ..then it makes sense that she does the belly dancing!(^^) I find her very interesting. She experienced a HOME STAY program in OOSAKA when she was in highschool, as well as studying Japanese in college, so she was prepared to move to Japan!(^^) She did some tv work as well & that's why her husband got to see her! I love what she said in that he wasn't her type but she already liked him a lot from what he wrote during the correspondence, so she wasn't concerned! It shows she is mature & not superficial! (^^) Glad both of their parents blessed their marriage inspite of the international marriage!(^^) It was sweet that she decided to surprise her husband with some Japanese dish for his birthday!! It was challenging as it was her very first attempt to make Japanese food!!(^^) I had to laugh when she didn't know what to do with miso!(^^) Thank God, the camera man was there to helped her cutting GOBO!! I bet many Japanese young women would have the same problem!(^^) It was cute when she cut out "a heart shape" with KINSHI TAMAGO!! It was perfect to express her huge LOVE for her beloved husband!!!(^^)(^^) I thought her CHIRASHIZUSHI looked pretty good considering it was her first try!! I smiled when he was so happy & was impressed how well she made the Japanese food! I think it must have been the BEST birthday gift he has ever gotten in his life!!(^^) It seems there might be an additional member in the family, trying to have a baby boy to be the 5th generation of the traditional family business..HIKIYA?? That would be cool!!! (^^)(^^)
