Fruit to Fish

Standard

This date a month has come again for me and mom to visit “Arles” on Ms. Scarlet. However, husband of beloved Master Mei-Shu Mr. O gave her a phone call in the morning. Frozen foods arrived from Hokkaido? He would like us to pick them up at his place? Sounds fine, purr. Shall we make a slight change in our plan? There is a doughnut shop just nearby.

Sunlight Sake

Standard

Mom had been expecting どなん, 泡盛=awamori liquor distilled specifically made in Okinawa, Yonaguni Island after consuming ミズナラ. When dad returned from Taiwan, she opened a box to find only a 与那国 bottle — name of the island itself. They share 60% alcoholic, cool body, wrapped by dried palm leaves, leading to nice appetite, etc. No problem for you, purr.

Hawaii Here

Standard

Mei-Shun dined with her niece M-chan last night. The former aunt picked up the latter at 17 : 17, drove Ms. Scarlet toward a café in Tsukuba. Nice wooden furniture and garden, torches are kindled after dark. Music suddenly started, to which ladies putting on flowers from hair to ankles danced. By the way, this 21-year-old woman never drink coffee even for dessert pancakes!

Kiss Kölsch

Standard

Shin and Mei-Shun dined at their favorite German restaurant on weekend. That was not because the husband would go on a business trip to the country from tonight, yet in order to energize the wife who had a sore throat at the end of last month. All the same symptom he got a few days before, she is recovering thanks to horsey and medicine. How nice it is, Gaffel Wiess waited for her!

Kaga Kimono

Standard

We might see above, a sweet rice cake from 金沢. White ones are also in the box, tastes better for Mei-Shun. Both are due by tomorrow when Shin comes back from Kyoto. They have consumed around half, ready to put the rest into a freezer: nice frozen pops would be served after breakfast, not a bath at night. The wife makes it a new rule, enjoying smooth melting in mouth.

Another Advantage

Standard

Here Mei-Shun keeps lovely bags of rice cracker. These sparrows came from Osaka where Shin visited on business — 2 weeks have already passed since he brought them home. Compared to sweets from 能登 and 名古屋, they taste best for longer until August. And they are able to work as our staple food, simply mentioned by name. Now which would she choose tonight?

Cheer Up のと: 2

Standard

Today is the deadline to order 水無月=minazuki from たねや this year. Well, Shin and Mei-Shun have consumed just 1 of 3 boxes he purchased at 能登里山 Airport last week. They visited that city twice, love halcyon atmosphere there and beautiful sight fairly balanced between the sea and rice paddy. With their petite contribution, rapid recovery is cordially wished.

Cheer Up のと: 1

Standard

水無月=minazuki, meaning current month, calls one of Shin and Mei-Shun’s favorite sweets. Kyoto people enjoy it on June 30th to celebrate safe half an year. Above couple, earnest buff of our ancient capital, followed this custom for a decade. However, the husband brought home the other day a lot of souvenir from 能登 — suffering from a serious earthquake on New Year’s Day.

Funny Fungi

Standard

They always comes between Mei-Shun’s teeth including space to accommodate artificial Ame-chans; simmered enoki mushroom flavored by soy sauce, fried bean sprout with tonkatsu sauce, are meant. Shin fairly loves them, who force his wife to use brush and dental floss afterward. Darling, didn’t Mr. Danone Caesar see anything in mom’s mouth this morning, did he?

Full of Fruits

Standard

Mei-Shun is pleased looking at her refrigerator Mr. Cuby. Cherry from elder sister Y, melon Shin nicely brought home, 2 kinds of oranges she ordered and apple purchased at a supermarket. Kiwi sauce had already been consumed with yogurt, a bottle of green 梅 plum jam followed this morning. When she gave some of above vermillion jewelry to mom-in-law, received another melon.
