It is Shin’s brother-in-law who takes care of cars owned by him and his wife. When he brought Mr. Diamond to their place the other day, no sticker of tax certificate was on the front glass. Next morning made him rush to Mei-Shun, certify the blue-gray chic. She found following audience, told him how lovely they were. He replied, “ah, they are buds of cauliflower, aren’t they?” Oops, oops.

Unique Friends
StandardHello, 狛犬=koma-inu guardians. Their names are “阿”=a and “吽”=n, meaning breathing out and in to pronounce respectively. Mei-Shun greets the former before giving a prayer — oh? Who is this, taking a rest on阿’s cheek? Maybe you two are playing a hide-and-seek, closely resemble each other. All right, she would bring omikuji lots to lonely吽 and read them with him/her.
So Stormy
StandardIt seemed to Mei-Shun that 春一番=haru-ichiban, the first wind of spring roared around Kanto area yesterday. However, only Kansai was covered on this matter until last night while a weather forecast said it really was at noon today. Well, like the writer here who was named after it, springtime is so capricious that nobody can predict what and how she would do.
Happy Chocolate
StandardMeow, you should brush me up before reading papers. It sounds nice that your pet skaters won medals in current Olympic Game, while does not matter to me. Just keep sitting down here on the sofa, do not wander about to do the dishes or to cook. By the way, why do you eat so much sweets this morning? You saw the best result in recent weeks on the scale yesterday? Purr, good for you.

All Whites
StandardSwans, black-headed gulls and plums. 花鳥風月=kachofugetsu; flower, bird, wind and moon represents Japanese beauty while implicates many others including patterns on kimono, the sun which enables the moon to see, mountains where wind comes down from, etc. These friends of Mei-Shun floating on 乙戸沼 Pond surface reminded her of the flower lane, let her drop in the bakery again.
After 2Y + 45Wks
StandardDr. A gave Mei-Shun a “Yes” phone call on Sunday. The latter feels really happy, expecting to be relieved for a while from thinking about the disease which raided her three years ago. However, she should treat herself neither to a chocolate nor to an ice cream because of a bag of sugar around her waist — another illness with chronic character might be more serious.
Pretty Plums
StandardThere are plum trees lining a street nearby Mei-Shun’s one of favorite bakery shops. She makes it a rule to visit there as soon as hearing 節分=setsubun, the day to close winter on solar calendar. She felt truly happy to see these pink flowers besides white ones; the latter tend to bloom sooner. How cute you are, shining in pink with a pinch of orange! You resemble a little another kapu-suke Shin won for the second time.
Who Are U?
StandardSince it started to rain on Thursday, mom had to cancel all lessons. She instead visited stalls of Vanilla-san and Madoka-chan. I heard the former is a nice guy, yet who is here? Good patience will be rewarded by brown sugar or carrot, which I never want. Mine is meat stew packed in retort pouches. I always sit down at an empty dish calmly, wait for mom to recognize my sight. Then a gentle meow would just work.

Too Muddy
StandardMei-Shun took it mistakenly as 弾丸低気圧, dangan-teikiatsu. 南岸低気圧, nangan– is correct meaning a southern-coast atmospheric depression. It attacked Japanese archipelago on Monday, left our club field all covered with snow. Since quickly made it, she thought it was named after a bullet. No matter which direction you come from, please do not prevent her from riding backs of lovely Madoka-chan and Vanilla-san.
Joy at Fukushima
StandardIt has nice 駄菓子=dagashi, Japanese traditional tea-time sweets. Not only taste simple and good, they also look so lovely that both adults and children can enjoy. Mei-Shun’s favorite is もも餅, peach rice cake while mom-in-law’s 松茸, matsutake mushroom. Shin knows well the latter, advised his wife to choose it as a souvenir. By the way, his first business trip in 2018 is to this city from today.
