Mom watered Momo-chan and her daughters in early morning. Dad looked for my garden brother Monsieur Opéra, missed him and walked toward the nearest station. When she started sweeping, something sounded creaking. What is going on? Oh, it was a greeting from that boy in fluffy black/chocolate-brown coat. Your crisp is ready of course, please enjoy. Purr … purrr …

Here one of our garden trees gave its first fruit. They say it takes as long as 25 years for apple, yet Shin, mom-in-law and Mei-Shun saw just a few. They owe such fast growth to younger sister-in-law M – she works for an orchard research institute. Looking like a gift wrapping is bird netting the husband prepared. Naturally dropped into it, received by glad “grandma”.
… is a Chinese saying Mei-Shun quite likes. It sounds to mean “medicine and food shares the same sources”. Shin also utters that there is no food harmful toward your body. And it is he who kindly ordered above 黄桃=yellow-flesh peaches for her. 1st delivery was accepted a week before, when the wife had a slight cold. Now she recovered, tried this 2nd gifts with apples’ texture.
It rained so hard last night, that mom could not sleep well. Her “Clair de Lune” practice might not serve to call that celestial beauty these days. On the other paw of mine, she recently renewed membership in a sumo stable fan club. You can change 推し=favorite rikishi, yet her 名取 heart is always with him whose 四股名=土俵 ring name is seen above. Purr … purrr …

Lunar July starts from today, with obon holidays on solar calendar. It would be full of typhoon effects, followed by approaching Nangka. Sky changes color one after another; blue, white, light/dark gray. That is why Shin imposed a “curfew” for Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun. Thanks a million, Yuko-san, who kindly sent them closed at home a box of 残暑見舞い=late summer gift.
Mei-Shun’s PC has been overheated – it never responds to her press on power key. Its hot bottom warmed note/textbooks piled below all night perhaps, made her spread them beside cool morning windows. She opened above quiet body, put it in front of an electric fan. Nothing worked until the battery lamp turned off. “You’ve done well, yet remove it first next time”, Shin advised her later.
… schoolchildren on summer holiday seem like to visit: we have the former day last month, while the latter today. However, Typhoon 15th or Chan-hom over Pacific Ocean heads west, might make the first landfall in Ibaraki Prefecture at night. Shin and Mei-Shun therefore took early care of garden plants; the husband used a lawn mower, the wife fixed Momo-chan babies’ poles.
Mei-Shun tends to choose light meals here, preparing for big dessert plates. Poke, quite like our sushi bowl, is among the best 3 on her list; with guava juice, a nice match. M-chan seemed pretty starved, finished faster the same dish. They soon moved toward sweets, enjoyed chocolate/fruits pancakes respectively. Oops, what is that black interloper on your peaches?
It means a restaurant mom and M-chan dined at tonight. The former aunty has not felt very well for a week, might have a slight cold. However, such blue condition was all forgotten when she picked up her only niece, purr. Medication, good sleep and meals are obviously important to cure our disease. Communication also works, as they say 病は気から=your mind controls your body.

We expect a 下弦 half moon tonight, while a slight rainfall in the morning led a lot of clouds. Once bright sunshine came onto Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun, then gray sky shed foggy tears. Which scores would the latter choose in such a dizzying change, Ms. Piano? Her normal practice starts from “Clair de Lune” – might always call for that celestial beauty in wet weather.
