What Is It: This Holiday Season, prepare something different when you entertain family and friends. Yoko Isassi, the founder of Foodstory, will take you on a joyful holiday journey in these two workshops on Saturdays, November 17 and December 09. Many of the dishes incorporate seasonal fruits and vegetables that are available and accessible to Angelenos. “Kyoto Style Temari Sushi are pretty, colorful sushi balls, that remind me of beautiful Christmas ornaments,” says Yoko.

The “holidays” isn’t just the holidays for me and my family. It is a season filled with much celebration as it includes the birthdays of my dad (Dec 4), my sister (Dec 29), and my mom (Jan 1)! We look forward to the holidays each year as every weekend there is a reason to celebrate life, love, and family.
I really hope I win a prize! If I win, I plan on sharing this with my Mom and Dad so they can enjoy something exciting for their birthdays together!
Main reason that I Love the Holidays, is to spend time with my Family. The holidays are so Happy Chippery, it’s a good season to be JOLLY haha. Family is my reason, Thankful, and blessedness (:

I love the Holidays because Marian gives me things (hint hint, LOL). In seriousness though, I love the Holidays because it reminds me of what’s most important in life: family and friends. Oh and Starbucks has holiday cups and pumpkin spice latte.
