Lovely Lick

Meow, lunar June starts from today. I, dad and mom visited a little shrine located in 輪島 on weekend instead of the nearest one from home. A tiny, white friend of mine holds an omikuji lot giving us 楽=raku not any kind of 吉=kichi. You might be right — good luck comes from feeling happy. At least for mom who received the other artificial Ame-chan at Dr. M’s clinic.

Blue and Brown

Meow, one of mom’s favorite sports started in Nagoya from Sunday. And it is yesterday when 2 of our 3 air conditioners stopped cooling: their outdoor units are set on the roof floor. Since main goals of current repair include leakage avoidance, they need to be removed until next week. She therefore gave up putting on a yukata given by beloved Master Mei-Shu on 16th 中日.

Best Beauty

Purr, dad brought home above bins of cooked peach. “This white breed would be on store shelves soon,” he explained to me and mom. “So they remove smaller, worse-shaped ones before picking up attractive products.” It sounds a bit weird to me: why do you need to make choice by looks? What is the most important for fruits? “If it is sweet and juicy”, she replied. “You always know the truth.”

Moon Mist

Yawn, this is the last day of dad’s birthday month on solar calendar. Also at the end of weekdays meaning Friday, it lets mom feel the former half of 2023 finished quite well. She already ordered 水無月=minazuki, an important sweets to celebrate today with him. Still in lunar May, our outer wall was repainted into shining white called by a pretty name shown above.

Rare Rain

Mei-Shun walked to a hair salon, carrying a parasol works also as an umbrella under a gray sky. It took nearly 2 hours today, a bit longer than usual. Now she has to rush toward home, French radio lesson starts. However, current program is — oh, she has an excellent substitute. A combination of books and a CD starring a cute girl and a cat boy, a Christmas gift from Shin many moons ago.

Lovely, Tiny

Meow, we have 夏至=geshi, the 4th of summer 二十四節気 today. Mom and I visited her horsey riding club with a rare chance of 梅雨の晴れ間, sunny days during an opposite season. The longest daytime of the year also served her well for dancing with Ms. Carino Piccola. She really means her name in Italian, yet less than I do of course. Here I’m in your previous towel blanket … purr … purrr …

Cute & Colorful

This date has come again for me and mom to visit “Arles” together, purr. Mr. Diamond, you are really a good guy keeping both of our convenience and enough space for construction workers. Of course you too, Ms. Scarlet, who temporary stays at another car park across a street. We got on the former around 15 : 00 tea time. Dad in weight control requested tiny macarons only.

Jujube June

Happy birthday daddy, purr. It is great pleasure of mine and mom to celebrate the day you were born. For mom’s mom-in-law living downstairs the same of course, looks happy cooking much. He planted 棗=natsu-me, named because they give leaf buds in summer, both outdoors and indoors. The former is a young tree purchased in our country, the latter fresh fruits he brought from China.

Two Twins

Mei-Shun makes it a rule these days to put Mademoiselle Vert on verandah floor when it rains. Natural watering seems much better, encourages buds to open one after another. You are so sweet bringing emerald eyes of Mikan-chan, honey. Now you have 14 flowers followed by 5, yet there is no need to be in a hurry. Please get enough rest, and stay with her as long as possible.

Bright Blue

Thanks a trillion, Kaori-san. I would convey great gratitude to you on behalf of mom, for sending her a lovely work featuring a long-hair girl called ネコノセさん=Ms. Cat Cap and a brown friend of mine. Drawn on a piece of 越前和紙, she has a teardrop on left cheek where kitty’s tail hanging along. Do they float in the sky? That might let us know the reason for such a brilliant color.
