My recipe is on Culinary Trends food magazine for executive chefs



Oh my goodness!

My favorite recipe "Magic ramen noodle with pork soup" is on " Culinary Trends" food magazine for executive chefs.
I saw another chef''s recipes in same section with mine, they are the executive chef of Hyatt and Belamar hotel
I am not a executive chef, they introduce me as a chef/author.

I sent this recipe to 15 food magazines company almost 8 month ago.
Two food magazines responded to me.
A editor sent a email to me and asked to take the picture of this dish and me by professional photographer.
So, I did i t and mail to her. After that, I did not hear anything from her for long time.
I thought she did not like my picture and almost gave up about this magazine.

Last week, a Japanese friend who never see each other for 30 years sent a e mail to me and asked "Do you remember me ?" Of course I remember her, "but how do you find out me"
She said "I saw your recipe and you on Culinary trends magazine".
She just opened some page and she screamed "Keiko !"
I thought she went back to Japan for long time ago.
She married with a Japanese chef and have 5 children with him in San Fransisco.

This magazine say " New magazine for executive chefs", so her husband was reading this magazine all the time.
I was so surprised with my recipe is on the magazine after 7 month later.

So we are so excited with "this miracle meeting again" by this magazine.
They are coming to see me in next week, she said " I can not wait to see you, I was always thinking about you for this 30 years". She had a picture with me which took when I was 28 years old and she was 20 years old. Life is interesting.

One thing I have to emphasize, she saw my 57 years old face picture, and she screamed " Keiko".
She said " You have same face when you were 28 years old" I want you read this word at least 3 times.

Any way, I can't wait to see her again after 30 years later.

I think " Our life are wonderful"

Love

Keiko
