Marvelous Medicine

Standard

Mei-shun ordered a melon from Tottori Dunes. It took three days to become mellow, emitting sweet scent with softer bottom. Since she cannot touch them on supermarket shelves recently, such pleasant communication is allowed just at home. On the other hand, Shin brought home a bag of mint candies made in Hokkaido. It works very well when you have a heavy stomach.

Melon Twins

Standard

Yes, one in green flesh while the other orange. Shin, a generous orderer and Mei-Shun enjoyed the former this morning. Cut into quarters, one piece was delivered to mom-in-law of course. Oh, how sweet and juicy it is! According to attached instruction, their best time would be shown at the bottom: when we touch softer there with sugary scent, let them stored in a refrigerator.

Last Weekday

Standard

… of this month we have today. How was it for you kind followers? Mei-Shun feels it quite fine, which has become nice time to rethink about her life (slightly described here) with kabuki dance, Mikan-chan and Ms. Piano. Precisely, she is so much grateful to all of these loved ones: she experienced almost no stress under that stay-home campaign. Thanks to them and … her great sponsor Shin of course.

PM’s face masks were delivered to Shin’s office, not yet to home.

Shining Smile

Standard

Mei-Shun visited her home dentist today for a check in every 4 months. Actually, she felt slight stains on upper incisors, worried that they might get decayed. Dr. M was kind enough laughing it off, saying it is caused by tea. Her assistant then cleaned it off, let this patient regain white teeth. Not only their technique but also finely sanitized environment is highly esteemed.

Can U find a lovely green plum?

 

Japanese Culture@holiday

Standard

Yes, this is Showa Day, changed from Green Day in our previous Heisei era. Since it was birthday of Emperor Showa, Mei-Shun thought December 23rd, on which Emperor Emeritus Akihito was born, would be a holiday from 2020. However, it has become a weekday after 30 years, while February 23rd a holiday as Birthday of current Emperor Naruhito.

Mom-in-law’s お赤飯=o-seki-han, red-bean rice to celebrate today

Doll Festival

Standard

This is for girls, maybe set to be the counterpart of Children’s Day celebrated mainly for boys on May 5th. Both of them are days of sweets as well, since hina-arare, rice puffs coated with frosty sugar are served on the former while kashiwa-mochi, rice cakes wrapping red bean-paste balls on the latter. For Shin and Mei-Shun, lovely frog faces joined — souvenir from Nagoya.

Five Years

Standard

… have passed since Mei-Shun had that operation. She has always been grateful to healthy days so far; praising, holding and taking care of Mikan-chan, playing Ms. Piano, dancing kabuki dance while with horsey. And she would from now on of course. It seems not necessary to increase the number of what she finds happy. The more her passion is poured, the bigger pleasure they give.

Hi, I’m Silk Traveler.

Happy to sniff U.

Greeting Green

Standard

Hello Mr. Tea Time, looking so cute as usual, while a hair accessory on your forehead lost one of rhinestones. It would be a great pleasure of Mei-Shun to change it into another already prepared. Listen, Antwerp, the city of jewelry, brought her the best choice of emerald ring via Shin. Their couple of clear and green gemstones would therefore wait a bit more to become a pair of earrings.

Who’s foot is below right?

Acknowledgement

Standard

It is my great pleasure to inform you kind followers on a little accomplishment. Mom and I saw 222 of you the other day. We had wished to see it before 22nd of this month, Day of Cat for fanciers in our country. However, we reached that happy point much earlier. With our next goal 333, we would serve you better site by making efforts for improvement.

Dry Promptly

Standard

Here are pink roses Shin gave Mei-Shun on her birthday. Beauty lasts short — it is very difficult to keep them fresh. One week seems to be the limit to let them stay on soaked sponge, from her experience. She should not hesitate to pull them out of the silver pot. If hung upside-down in time, they would not so much change both in shape and color. Returning to the throne, their longer life of princess starts.
