Cooking and Eating

I like eating and also cooking. Before I move there, I expected that I lose weight by living myself. But it was dissapointing thing. First, I thought I wouldn't cook so much. But I'm cooking as much as beyond my expectation. And I realized that reason. I think I blow my stress off by cooking and eating. Except those, there are nothing special for me. All I can enjoy there is just doing housechores by myself. Ahh, needless to say, of course I like this job, but sometimes I got stress from that. I think such distress is not just for me.
The other day, I made spagetti with tomate sauce. It was pretty good taste and also it looked nice. So I took that picture. But I left the cable to connect a camera with a computer...I'll attach that next time soon.

Sparrow and Frog

Ahaha! You're right! I ate three onigiris for lunch and after that I ate two more another those for snack. Anyway your onigiri was very good!
And...Yeah!! I forgot refering to important thing in our dinner! Thanks Hiromi. When we went to sendai, we ate sparrow and flog's leg!!! This was first experience for two of us in our life. We had never such a chance to eat those ever. Well, about those tastes...sparrow, it was (maybe)boiled sweet as it is...yeah, we could know that shape, although it is not so real because it was boiled, so it was smaller, I think. It was sweet and salty. It tasted like fish which is boiled as sparrow was. I felt so when I chewed that. It was ok, but I won't order willingly. About frog's leg. It was a kind of good. I've heard that frog's leg tastes like chiken. It was true. I surely thought it was like chiken and taste good. But the leg was rather pretty long for frog which I know well...yeah it I ate is for edible, bullfrog...unfortunately I could image that real size from that leg... Even though I wanna try again if I have a chance.
I should have taken those pictures too!

GW has finished...

I'll go back to my apartment. So I washed my car this morning for the first time. It was pretty hard work...:( And it might be rain this evening. I knew that. But I had no time to wash the car if I didn't do today. Anyway the car became nicer than before.

This GW was really good break for me. Last month was really busy. My life will be settled down.

It might be small thing. But I knew how to attach a picture to blog finally. So I'll take pictures around my new place. (Although here is nothing special...)

Monday, May 2nd

I had to join to brath band in the morning. While I was at school, Hiromi was in my room by herself. So I asked her to prepare our lunch.

When I got to my room, opened the door, I found 8 onigiri(even though two of them were small...)!! I was surprised to see those. However do we eat those all in a day?(I mean, after lunch, we would go to sendai.So we were going to clear the fridge.)Anyway, the lunch was good.

After lunch, we headed to Ichinoseki to take a bus which goes to Sendai. We could got on a bus as soon as we arrieved Ichinoseki station. In a bus, we were sleeping(somehow I was tired...parhaps that's why I played trombone after a long separation...)

We stayed 東横イン. The room was nice and enough to stay just one night. We took a rest a little and we went out to join voice.
We met James there.(Long time no see, James!) We talked with him a little bit. He remembered "my seacret job". Last year, I answered that it was seacret when I was asked my job by him. (Yeah, I didn't tell him then. Not only James. I hadn't told anyone about my job for a while...) I could tell him my job yesterday(2nd). But I missed the timing to tell. So I didn't tell him again. I'm wondering I should have told him. Or, I think, he'll think my job is something like night work forever...

After that, we met Frank and had dinner together.(Long time no see, Frank!) He took us to "strange izakaya"(he said so)...strange...yeah...in Japanese, for Japanese, it is not "strange", I think. Of course they were interesting. But if I explain that, I'll say retrospective...I mean because I know there were such days. Anyway they were nice. Yeah, the izakaya has an atmosphere like early showa days.

Posted by HelloWe enjoyed talking and drinking. Thank you, Frank. Take care.

As soon as we got to our hotel, room, I fell asleep. I was sleepy then as usual. I've never been drunk. But I'm always aleepy when I drink...just that.

humm....

I don't know well how to attach a picture to blog...

Sunday, May 1st

This morning, I went to see Shiroyama park(?) with my sister, my father and my grandmother to see cherry trees. The weather was so nice!...so clear sky...confortable temperature...
Of course the cherry blossoms were very beautiful!!
There was one thing I should be surprised(actually I was surprised). There were two peacocks in Shiroyama park!! I have no idea why they were there.Shiroyama park

After luch, I went back to my apartment with my friend, Hiromi.

On the way to my apartment, we droped in Tenshochi, in Kitakami, to see cherry trees. It was not at their best. But even though we could see beautiful cherry blossoms. And we got on a small boat with about twenty other people. So we saw the trees from Kitakami river. I thought we should have been there at their best. (from boat, their color were not so clear )

When we arrived my room, I found I left the key for room at my HOME... I was sooo stupid... I was really shocked at my fault myself... so I went to my landlord's house to borrow the spare key...

We decided to make dinner by ourselves. Hiromi made spagetti and I made a salad(It was easier than spagetti...thank you, Hiromi!) Both of them were delicious. So we ate too much...
