Big harvest!

When AyeYai saw the big harvest this morning, she said who will cook them?

I could have no reply.

Hide-and seek of a Frog

See you!

Did you find me?

Stone the crows! I don't care that!

What a beautiful rising sun! I hope today will be good day!

Insect 008 swallowtail butterfly ( アゲハチョウ）

AyeYai found out this swallowtail butterfly in the orange osmanthus this morning.

And she told me that.

Yes, I did take the pictures.

Insect 007 Large brown cicada( 油蝉 Aburazemi ）

We found out this cicada on the grape branch in this morning

These are today's harvests.

A strawbwrry flower in violent heat

The violent heat hit Japanese islands now.

Meanwhile, s strawberry is having a flower like this.

The flower is in out-of-season.
We could find out strawberry flowers on last winter also.
Will we eat the berries after one month???

Persimmon (柿 カキ Kaki)

The persimmon had only one fruit last year.

How many the fruit can I get?

Calling present (手土産 Temiyage)

These are today's harvests.
AyeYai went to Tokyo with them as a calling present for our grandsons.
It means I am the bachelor at the moment again.

Am I a swinging bachelor now?

No, you are lonely bachelor!

Gift of the earth!

Those are today's our breakfast.

There are three gifts of our garden.

Corn

Soybean

Strawberry jam

We had good time on this Sunday morning!

This lily is blooming again this year at same place.

There are new plant pots by the lily.

One is for the campanula punctata lam.

Another one is for the abutilon.

Our house landscape in this morning!

I posted another morning glory last July 10.

I like this one.

Insect 004-2 (Mantis カマキリ 螳螂）

I found out it this morning on the peach branch.

"Good morning!"

This is a different kind of mantis which I found around in our garden fifty days ago.

Harvest #013 (Corn 玉蜀黍 とうもろこし Tomorokoshi)

These corns were seeding on June 20.

AyeYai went to Tokyo for taking care of our grandsons with these corns as coming-home present. So I am in bachelor life again.

Trip to Hokkaido

We tripped to Hokkaido with our grandson's parents last week.
AyeYai was as a photographer and I was as a male nanny.

Our grandson was sleeping in the Jet.

We could not get relief from summer because Hokkaido was violent heat also like Honshu island.

But we were enjoying this trip

The corns are fine! (元気に育ってます！)

The corns are thriving in fine!

We will enjoy them a week later.

Bye-Bye Bachelor Life

These are yesterday's harvests.

And this is yesterday's my dinner which I made.

AyeYai came back home today.

Bye-Bye Bachelor Life!

a cicada's shell

Cicada's shell locust plague?

#057 Corn (トウモロコシ Tomorokoshi )

I think these are stamen,

and these are pistil.

These corns are those.

What should I do?

The cirus, Setoka has some fruits now.

That's first time on the tree since planting.
But a insect ate many leaves.

And that there are a lot of dung on the spider webs.

I found out a hornworm who are eating brief.

Which one should I guard?

Routine meals ( Running egg? Kaketamago 駆け卵?）

When I was university student in Tokyo.
This is my routine meals at that time.

It's easy cooking and very delicious.

Why don't you try it?

Bachelor Life (独身生活 Dokushin Seikatsu)

Aye Yai is in Tokyo for taking care of our grandsons for a week.
I will be a bachelor for a week since yesterday.

This is a typical menu for a bachelor.

Yes, this is today's dinner, instant noodles.
