Lunar May starts from today. Mei-Shun visited a horsey riding club in 龍ヶ崎 to draw reservation lot, not omikuji at a shrine. What, No. 586 to designate Mr. Danone Caesar next month? Well, it might be in the middle of rainy season, prevented from trotting with him. Now she heads to a supermarket for fresh cream whipped and served with handmade chiffon cake.
Meow, please let me inform you kind 517 followers on mom’s secret: she has gained one and a half of sugar bags around waist. Well, May was favorite month for younger her, full of new lives outdoors. However, recent light colors around us including wild cherry trees already come in the middle of April. She would not be able to catch up with such a rapid change, tends to stay indoors in poor condition.

We would see a full moon tonight, yet many clouds might prevent us from that beauty in dark sky. Mei-Shun therefore tried to catch 小望月 last night, with such a poor result. And oh, she did similar on Ms. Piano by “Clair de Lune” sung expecting clearer weather. Well anyway, it is already time for her and Mikan-chan to get on Ms. Scarlet toward a horsey riding club.
We have 小満=shoman, the 2nd of summer 二十四節気 today. They say はしり梅雨, forerunner rainy season is often seen in western part of our country, while eastern area Mei-Shun’s family live had such a phenomenon. Heavy rain continued from early morning made horsey riding field rice paddy, with no harvest expected. That might be why Mr. Loki danced just a few steps.
Mei-Shun finally put away above stove guy into 押入れ closet. What does he carry on the head, do you kind 517 followers wonder? It is a gift box from a chocolate company via one of credit card. She ordered it last year, while totally forgot when. And the number of ice cream cups surprised her: 14, layered by a paper holder. Well, 2 nephews living nearby would help Shin and his wife.
Mei-Shun often makes mistakes on Ms. Piano, even in her favorite “Clair de Lune” composed by Master Debussy. When she concentrates well, finger movement and key positions seem to melt into melodies flowing smoothly. However, sudden stops force her to read scores again. She wonders which key a note means, writes down sharps or flats with a pencil stub.
… it is today, our fiscal 2024 starts from Monday. Dad brought home above on weekend, let mom feel happy to see it after decades perhaps: they visited Okinawa for the first time together just after marriage. She loves 泡盛 distilled sake there, while took this tofu product as a bit weird. Now grown up enough, it is taken great accompanied by 鵜戸詣 from 宮崎 via kind Professor M.

Shin came back to Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun yesterday morning, with souvenirs including a durian pie. His hotel in Ho Chi Minh City asked guests not to bring that king of fruits into rooms saying “no smoking, no durian”. The wife has agreed with them so far, while feels it acceptable this time. It might help her condition to improve through 三寒四温, from cold winter to warm spring.
Last week when Mei-Shun saw Dr. A, a good bakery this ex-inpatient makes it a rule to drop in was closed. She therefore replaced it by one nearby, whose branch in Tsukuba has been visited before — a decade might have passed since then. Well actually, sweet “melon-pain” is her criterion to judge if loyalty would be born to a shop. Oh, how cute they are here, in tennis ball shapes!
It snows from early morning today: my wings make them when I fly freely around mom, purr. We stay together at home, quite satisfied with our choice to see lovely horseies yesterday. She was actually a bit worried about her health on Monday, saw one bag of sugar gone with no reason. How is it tonight? It safely returned, let her find so-so numbers on a scale.
