Diary of my life in Canada August 26
I cooked Japanese cuisine for my friends.
I think it was so-so. I was wondering if the taste was good or not.
For foreigner, Japanese cuisine is sweet. We use "みりん" when we cook.
みりん is a kind of Japanese seasoning. It makes the cook sweet.
Yesterday, I used sugar instead of みりん because there was not みりん in the kitchen.
I think I put sugar too much. I shouldn't have put sugar....
Anyway, my friends ate my cooking well. I'm happy for cook for them.
They ate much, and I ate that as much as them.

I'm sure the 和食 was fantastic! You can probably buy Mirin where you live. It's a fairly common product in food stores in the US and Canada. It's usually near the soy sauce and rice vinegar. I used to add sugar to eggs when I made sushi-style tamago omelette.

For foreigners, Japanese cuisine is sweet. We use "みりん" "Mirin"* when we cook.
みりん Mirin is a kind of Japanese seasoning. It makes adds a sweet flavour to the cooking sweet.**
Yesterday, I used sugar instead of みりん Mirin because there wasn't any Mirin not みりん in the kitchen.
I think I put in too much sugar too much. I shouldn't have put added sugar....
Anyway, my friends ate my cooking well***. I'm happy for I enjoy cooking for them.
They ate much a lot, and I ate that as much as them.
* Mirin - I think it's better to use the English spelling.
** "It makes the cook sweet" (これは「シェフが甘いです」という。（笑）そうですよねーでも・・・) . You need to say that the food, or the cooking is sweet. "Cook" means the person who is cooking.
*** I just learned the use of よく in Japanese. It's very similar to in English, right? よく食べました is the same as "ate well." But with "eat well" or "ate well" you can't put any other words between them. So it's better to say, "My friends seemed to like my cooking. They ate well." (It sounds strange to say "they ate the food well" or "they ate my cooking well" - "well" has to be next to the verb - at least when it's about cooking.)

Nice job Hiromi! You write well! I have a few comments:
-We don't really say "so-so" very often in English. I understand the meaning, but I thought it was ok / I thought it wasn't bad / I thought it was alright might sound more natural to your friends.
-"Anyway" has a slightly different meaning if it's at the beginning or the end of the sentence. We can use it at the beginning to return to the main story if we change the topic. Maybe this is what you wanted, and I can understand it. We can also use it at the end to say "although ~~~, we still ~~~". So for example, Although I used too much sugar, my friends still ate my cooking can also be written as I used too much sugar. My friends at my cooking anyway. In your entry, this one seems better.
-よく食べた We don't talk about eating or drinking like this. It's much more common to say something like My friends ate a lot of my cooking or maybe My friends really seemed to like my cooking.
Please message me if you have any other questions! Great work!
