Vital Violet

Mom-in-law’s technique to grow vegetables is remarkable. She often gives Mei-Shun agricultural products; okra, cucumber, tomato, potato and egg plant here. No chemicals while a little fertilizer, she also cooks them well. Crisps would be cordially welcomed by her daughter-in-law, who saw nice numbers on a scale last night. This severe summer made her the slimmest after marriage.

Cool Crescent

Thank you so much, Professor M. His image of that beautiful entity seems the best to Mei-Shun. Caused by a thunderstorm from evening, almost nobody would be able to see anything in the sky tonight. By the way, Mr. Magical Thunder kindly danced with her. As soon as she got on Ms. Scarlet, raindrops started to fall. Did you ask your colleagues to wait? What a nice guy!

Sacred Silver

Happy birthday, Mikan-chan. Now you are 20 years old, grown up enough to take social responsibility as an adult. However, you were already perfect when met Mei-Shun 2 decades before. Never going outdoors since then, your earnest labor staying the prettiest every day has been highly appreciated by dad and mom. Would you like creamy, thick milk again?

Mei-Shun safely received a pair of tickets for sumo 九州場所, to visit with Shin and Mikan-chan. Oh, 正 means “front”, the same angle as we see bouts on TV. Since it was said seats had been invisible until Saturday, they did not know which would be theirs among 4; above 正面, 向正面, 東 and 西. Only concern here is if they could recognize winners without audio commentaries.

新月

Standard

Meow, it is 朔日 of lunar August today. I and mom turned to our 氏神 shrine to greet Gods, make a wish and draw omikuji lots after giving dad a ride by Ms. Scarlet to the nearest station. 小吉=sho-kichi, 末吉=sue-kichi: a little, the least lucky respectively? Hmm. Also a date for us to visit “Arles”, shall we try again in the evening? Or accept them as sacred voice? That sounds better, purr.

Serene Standing

Standard

Ms. Piano, your tranquil posture always calms Mei-Shun down. Please listen, she meant to walk in a pair of high-heeled sandals toward a new hair salon yesterday. Putting on horsey-riding boots at least twice a week these days, her feet seem to forget how to stroll in such elegant shoes. However, just a few steps resulted in a broken belt. And sorry for her mistake in yours, Mr. Treasure.

Pretty Pink

Here are new faces on a dining table for Shin, Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun. They came from a tea shop, where the wife visited to purchase 雁金 — she had already consumed this tasty, yet reasonable green leaves. Along with various drinks including coffee, lovely items are available depending on 4 seasons. Summer still seems to stay around us, that might be why a bicolor invited her.

Mei-Shun got on Ms. Scarlet at 9 : 00 to see Dr. A for a half-an-year checkup. On the way to the hospital, she dropped in a bakery who serves her favorite baguettes. Yes, really are tasty chopsticks with milk/peanut cream. They accompanied her toward a car park there, stay good boys/girls cooled by ice packs. When they came home together, a little leaf bud of Mademoiselle Vert welcomed them.

九月場所 of sumo wrestling started from yesterday. Not only Mei-Shun’s favorite rikishi in the top 幕内 rank, 2 young guys belong to 二所ノ関部屋, who proceeded toward 2nd highest 十両 won their respective first bouts. All of them like fish, while one of the latter peaches as well. He is a Fukushima native, fair-skinned and a good sport. Here is your aunt in kimono, shall we share above?

Meow, we have 白露=hakuro, the 3rd of autumnal 二十四節気 today. It means dew on grass leaves in early mornings, while they are washed by a heavy rainfall. Dad was forced to stay in Tokyo last night, I and mom at home. However, thanks to perfect repair finished at the beginning of August, we feel all safe indoors. No drop comes from ceiling or wall. Purr … purrr …
