First harvest in this year (かき菜 001)

These edible leaves are named Kakina "かきな" in Japanese.
It seems that Kakina doesn't have English name.
It's very popular as food cooking ingredient in Spring.
I picked them early this morning.
.

Before picking Kakina .....................................After picked Kakina


This is my today's breakfast.

I think this picture must be typical Japanese breakfast,.Kakina's Miso soup and Omelet.
The Omelet was used an accompanying dish for my today's lunch box.
The farm- fresh ingredients are making very delicious dishes always.
Of cause her cooking skill is in the foremost rank.

Electric Violin (エレキバイオリン)

What is this?
Yes, it's a Violin, but not ordinary Violin.


She bought it all of the sudden two years ago.


It's an Electric Violin, not a Guitar.

It's an Electric Violin without doubt.

Unfortunately, I had never seen she played it.

Ukulele (ウクレレ)

This Ukulele was bought by her brother forty years ago.
Now It is broken down, only one gut is stretched.

Playing the Ukulele was comparatively easy using ukulele manual for me.
So I could enjoy to play it with her singing. It was very long time ago.
Now we can not play it due to one gut.

Staff 008 (スライム?)

This figure, who is from US, was one of my daughter's collection also.
It must be a slime who came on DRAGONQUEST as popular game-software in worldwide.

I met the game when my son was three years old. And we were enjoying it together.
But he fell out of playing the computer game as Nintendo Entertainment System after graduate elementary school.
At the same time, I continued it until he becomes a university hopeful.

Now he is a fresh recruit.
