This fruit is among Mei-Shun’s most favorite, might represent her 2026; she got Momo-chan baby sisters, Shin kindly attended 頒布会=buying club of yellow breed after several years. The former let her enjoy splendour of new life, moved onto the ground in good health. On the other paw of Mikan-chan, the latter is delivered almost once a week. Above is the 4th box, called 黄貴妃.
My birth month has come, purr. Mom told me that she would change our date of “Arles” pâtisserie visit from 15th to 19th, mine. We actually stopped it for half a year, mainly because dad was on a strict diet: less fat could result in a successful operation. Always standing by him, she also tried controlling her own weight. Although partly failed, she is getting better.

Mei-Shun loves 冬瓜=winter melon with snow-white flesh, refreshing scent and lovely shape. According to Shin, it is harvested in hot months, can be stored until cold ones. Also is an autumnal 季語=season word for haiku, only spring seems excluded. Is it your childhood, darling? Now may she cut, peel and cook you into soup? Oh, here is other strength of you; low in calories.
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”.
… 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.
Here Mei-Shun found a pair of slippers consist of Mikan-chan’s breed faces and 畳=tatami mat. Actually, she has long failed in choice of them: design and comfort might not always be compatible. She often attached importance to the former, durable only for a summer. Since towel or straw was required on soles, they suit herself. Reasonable as well, blue ones followed.
Dearest 528 followers, dad safely had an operation at a hospital in Tokyo. He still stays there, while I and mom came back home to see you here again.

Hello, Opéra-kun; it is mom who named you after that gâteau au chocolat, resembles your coat accompanied by gold eyes. I, dad and she feel relieved to see you again. We noticed your right ear top cut a little, looking like a cherry petal. Such figures are called “sakura–mimi” meaning neutered. Kind adoption was wished, yet it is the 2nd best. Would you be my garden brother?

It rains hard from early morning. Mademoiselle Vert opened all her 19 flowers, enjoying shower outdoors. Mei-Shun brought her indoors when it stopped shedding tears around noon. Now she is ready to practice moonlight scores: it really is 梅雨 this year, who often prevents our seeing that celestial beauty or feeling the longest daytime on 夏至. Would you also continue until the end of solar July?
Shin is on board for the U.S.A. again. He left home before 6:00, drove Ms. Moon toward Haneda Airport. Train might delay caused by a slight earthquake last night, let Mei-Shun make good use of 先勝=sen-sho, a day the better if start working earlier. On the other paw of Mikan-chan, Wednesday means she must practice “La Chevaleresque” composed by Master Burgmüller, missing horsey riding.
