I've just returned to the States after living in Japan for 2 years and am undergoing some major life changes.
It's great to be able to buy good coffee, licorice and tortillas again!

Ratings:
I often give 4 or 5 star ratings, but I usually only try recipes that I know I'll like.
5 Stars - it was fantastic and I wouldn't change a thing.
4 stars - it's a very good recipe, will make again but changed it just a little.
3 stars - it was an okay recipe, but there were things I'd definitely change if I made it again.
2 stars - the recipe really didn't impress us much (by us I mean the hubby and myself)
1 star - there might have been something wrong with the recipe posting to begin with, because it was a complete failure (I haven't had any of these!)
