Birthday in Japan

We spent last weekend in Japan for my brother-in-law's wedding. I didn't take many pictures of my mother-in-law's cooking (although it's sensational), but I did take a picture of one of my favorite foods--pickled eggplant from Kyoto.

Over New Year's, when my husband visited Japan, he picked out some wine to surprise me with for my birthday and left it at his parents. His mother also bought peach wine from Hokkaido for us all to share. It was so delicious--just a little bit sweet.

My husband picked out a bottle of peach and a bottle of plum wine--both made in Kobe. They were also delicious. The fruitiness of the wine was just perfect. My husband, his parents, and myself enjoyed the wine the night before my brother-in-law's wedding.
