Accidents could occur, sometimes without any reason. Today’s Mikan-chan is so peaceful on a cushion. Hi, Omochi-chan, how do you feel? Or did you know why yesterday? Even your bites might be caused by anything. Well, well.
What’s the matter?
StandardOur of the blue, Mikan-chan made mom’s bed her restroom. Honey, you must explain this. It rains today. Mom has no place to sleep on. Do you want her to catch a cold? … hey, where are you?
Blue Reminds
StandardIt was a summer day of 2013. Mei-Shun shared a Chinese table with respectful “friends” for lunch in Tokyo. Professor S. gave these necklaces and pierces as a return gift: we had sent a bouquet to celebrate her birthday. Mammy beads are nicely arranged, made a good combination with the black dress Mei-Shun put on.
Mysterious Blues
Annual Custom
StandardThis is minazuki, a Japanese sweet to eat today for Nagoshi-no-Harae. A half piece would be dedicated to your past half-year life, while another half to wish your happiness in left half of current year.
Lively Avocado
Standard… with a mushroom. Maybe because of rainy weather, our pot plants sometimes accompany this light-yellow one in the morning. Never looks tasty, removed immediately.
avocado, grapefruit …
uninvited
Dear Kiwi Lovers
StandardPlease be careful. Mei-Shun suddenly suffered an allergy with it. After eating one, she felt a bit itchy around the mouth, looked in the mirror. Three red rashes were found! It is so shocking for her, a fruit lover. A steroidal medicine worked well, yet she has to refrain from that lovely, tasty darling for a while.
Still Green
StandardOur roof garden now has 5 mini-tomatoes. A little green mantis lives there. When we water them, he jumps out of the pod, run into another one. He is too quick to take a photo — hey, friend, why don’t you stay on the fruit? It would give us more charming shots.
Snowy Whites
StandardYou can find snowmen, cats, sea shells, etc. among these accessories hand-made by Professor S. Not only an excellent designer, she is also a fine judge for cute jewelries. Mei-Shun once accompanied to her favorite shop in Okachimachi, Tokyo. So many kind of beads are hung on the wall that it looks like a museum.
White Brilliance
Rained Hard
StandardSeeing mild sunshine in the morning, Mei-Shun was happy to hang futon bed mats and blankets. And in the afternoon, it suddenly started. Cold wind blew into our area. Raindrops followed to change into a storm immediately. This is what we call “guerrilla rainfall”, maybe because nobody can expect place and time of their attack.
Once in Three Years
StandardMei-Shun went to Tokyo for a lecture and test to keep a certificate necessary in her job. And today has the summer solstice, yet dark clouds prevented us from seeing the latest sunset of this year. As always, we have to say — it comes in the middle of rainy season. A little bit lonely.
