Mei-Shun noticed a young apple tree bloom in a light rain this morning. It is mom-in-law who planted it several years before, yet no blossom has been seen so far. We say 桃栗三年柿八年, meaning peach and chestnut take 3 years to bear fruit, persimmon does 8. According to an expert, ume plum follows by 13, pear 15, yuzu citrus 18, table orange 20 and above amazing 25.

Brownie Branch
StandardA weather forecaster recently said that 2025 染井吉野 cherry bloomed as usual, yet took longer toward full blossom thanks to chill, snowy days. Shin, Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun therefore enjoyed them on 2 weekends while the husband repaired a flowerless tree indoors to hang coats. The wife is happy to clean up his study floor occupied by a pile of shirts and bags.
Pretty Pink
StandardMikan-chan and Mei-Shun found peach trees in a queue, along a lane toward Tsukuba horsey riding club. The latter driver of Ms. Scarlet saw them bloom as heading there, yet gave up photos because they are on her left side. After enjoying dance with Mr. Marumorita, here they are just on the right. Be careful not to involve cars pass by, watch traffic light.
Superb and Satisfying
StandardYes, both are enough. Shocking numbers on a scale made Mei-Shun resume porridge method; freshly cooked rice must appear on a table in daytime, followed by above with more water at night. She took just 5 days to take off one bag of sugar from around waist. Would such weight come because she searched her favorite rikishi on PC too much? What do you think, Mr. Marumorita?
Upward Umbrella
StandardOh, how violent today’s wind is! Mei-Shun hung above one and another in early morning, waited for them dried enough. She actually canceled classes at Tsukuba horsey riding club, taking heavy rain of yesterday as caused rice paddy there. Her choice seems correct: such weather would make Mr. White Mocha stand still in the field, while Mademoiselle Angel might not care.
Cute Candies
StandardMei-Shun is quite pleased to resume one of her weight-control methods from today. A whole week saw gum under that poor molar stop bleeding, let dental floss safely go back and forth. She has held off on titled sweets for 2 weeks, while helped much by bonbons aux chocolats purchased for Professor A — he had another appointment when she handed the same box to Prof. M.
Fallen Furniture
StandardWell, it occurred in Saturday morning when Mei-Shun ironed out Shin’s shirts, back them onto a coat hanger branch. She felt its weight — yet has never done, then all other items hung leaned toward a bookshelf along a wall. “Are you all right?” the husband immediately asked, perhaps after hearing the wife scream a little. By the way, she replaced a poor plum photo with another taken from beneath the tree.
Dental Destiny
StandardMei-Shun saw her home dentist Dr. M. The former patient had a tiny piece of the last molar jump out from right upper jaw the other day, brought it with broken floss on a Y-shaped pick. “Since I’ve already covered it by metal, let’s make another appointment for authentic treatment”, the latter lady said. A hygienist gave advice to eat only on the left teeth, yet could you teach her how?
Pee and Poop(^^;)
StandardHappy Birthday, Mr. Marumorita. Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun cordially wish your prosperous 8 years old. Thanks as usual for dancing with them, giving refreshed mood. Here are apples, carrots and cookies. By the way, it is the 2nd time both of above are dropped behind you within space for riding gears to be put on/taken off. Please keep healthy diet, let’s go together.
Peel Potato
StandardStorm sounds blustering all over our country today; blizzard rages in northern area, violent wind descends toward south. Mei-Shun shuts herself indoors on such a day, giving up any activity outdoors. Now almost all job is over, shall we take a break on fruits, Mikan-chan? Please listen, mom found little kiwis stored in Ms. Cuby instead of pomme de terre.
