Cute Combination

Standard

Meow, here is a big can of 冨貴寄=fuki-yose mom ordered to arrive on Saturday. It was also the day for me and her to visit Arles, our favorite pâtisserie in Tsukuba. We therefore shared a table full of beautiful desserts with dad, who currently keeps good shape as his wife does. And she found that her horsey-riding technique certificate holds the same date in 2018, purr.

Rainy Rhythm

Standard

Mei-Shun continued to practice “Salut d’Amour” during Shin’s business stay in China, has learned how to say hello clearly to him on Ms. Piano. You need tuning soon, darling, who is sweet enough to sing moonlight scores often these days together with her best friend. Shall we look for a new technician this time, expecting one shares gender at least in mind?

吉 Kissing

Standard

Meow, mom chose the latter yesterday. She walked lively to the nearest shrine to draw an omikuji lot for herself, who tends to do it again if no good luck with 凶=kyo, the worst or 半吉=han-kichi, half luck or 末吉=sue-kichi, the least lucky. On the way to there, some of rice paddies ripe ears still left welcomed her. Now I have to ask Gods to grant her nice one, purr.

Great Grapes: 3

Standard

The other box of above fruit arrived at happy hands of Mei-Shun last night. She actually had a slight cold, staying home all day long. It therefore seemed like a get-well gift from Shin via Master I. Yes, thanks to it, she recovered toward 80% of normal condition today. Fever has gone, let her vacuum rooms in the morning. After lunch, which is better to go to nearby ENT clinic, or to walk to the nearest shrine?

Fine Finding

Standard

Thanks a million, Professor M. His rights on above image all reserved, 2022. He asked  Mei-Shun the other day if her kabuki dance lesson would soon resume. Well, it might take a bit more time since that “novel” coronavirus is currently swirling among us in recent variant. Such an experience is not agreeable, yet gave her a chance to recognize how excellent beloved Master Mei-Shu was.

Mei-Shun is a green tea lover: she enjoys it almost every day, all through the year. Now are cans of her favorite leaves going empty while tablets, balls and bags of Chinese tea arrived. Here are excellent breeds to replenish a couple of pottery from Hong Kong stored in a cupboard for decades. Hello, great to see you two again. Shall we enjoy a full moon tonight together?

Brilliant Bridge

Standard

Meow, it has become chilly from a few days before — mom brought me to Tokyo on Wednesday when rain started to fall. I had to control it not to get her wet, got myself exhausted. “Shall we go into futon blanket?” she said around teatime yesterday, pulling a 半纏 kimono coat out of a drawer, purr. After a nice nap, we found sunset to serve as a cool artist.

Chinese Candy

Standard

Here are a can and a bag of above souvenir Shin kindly brought home. Mei-Shun is so happy to receive them that never stops opening them after every meal from Saturday dinner. The former is soft in flavor of sweetened red-bean paste, while the latter hard in 梅=ume plum and butter. Combination of a sour fruit and milk fat is a bit amazing to her: dried and salted 梅 means a great friend of rice.

Smoggy Skytree

Standard

Mei-Shun went to a hair salon nearby Tokyo Station after a few days more than 2 whole months. With a slight rain, it was not the best for treatment yet cool enough to set bangs again. 牛久 Pond was halcyon as usual, a chimney of a famous noodle maker was working well. However, it was not easy to catch that 634-meter high broadcast tower whose top fully covered by grey clouds.

Thanks a lot, Master 二所ノ関=nisho-no-seki. He sent Shin and Mei-Shun a face towel his current and previous names printed on. It serves as a small gift for above couple to join the support group. However, why did 番付表=sumo wrestler ranking list of 九月場所=September or autumnal tournament arrive first? It seems better to convey gratitude before a 15-day match starts.
