More ‘More’ Recipes for the Yogurt Event

I have heard of people changing their religion, but never their nationality! Some of our food bloggers have now become Japanese! What with names like Omoshiroi, Etsuko and Sakura!! 😀 I was terrified to see these names in my contact list! These are our new Ninja Warriors. Best way to protect yourself from these warriors is to just post recipes for the events organized by the Ninjas in your blog! Look at me, preparing Yogurt dishes for the event in Etsuko’s blog, though I had planned for some other post! I also have to say “yes boss” to my own Omoshiroi! 😀

Does all this sound like Greek and Latin instead of Japanese!? Just relax and get ready for some nice Yogurt recipes! 🙂
