I went to buy a bag for my autumn with my husband. And I ate takoyaki again. After all the takoyaki had better be round.

I ate 15 before shopping, and after that I ate 15 again. As is expected, my skirt got tighter and tighter.

I do not know why, but the size of my skirt seems to be tighten every year. It might be shrink in wash.

Anyway, my favorite takoyaki shop is always packed with many people. But I was able to eat it to return. So I was glad.

How oily! But I love the butter.

The rice which became hard in an electronic thermos. I just fried it with butter because it was hard to eat. If I put white sauce on this, put cheese, and bake, it will be delicious Doria.

I filled a mug cup with this and upset it. It seems to be "Helping of various kinds of dishes food" for kids. The butter is a genius. Any kind of dish becomes delicious when I use the butter.

Fried burdock / tomato / okura / cod roe / fried fish. I prepare a lunch box for my hubby.

Don't you notice that there is a little strange points to the picture?

There are some restaurants in the workplace of him. But he wants to bring a lunch. Because his work time is irregular, there is nothing if he goes there late. 

And he seem to hate lining up. Therefore I get up early every morning and prepare a lunch for him.

But the middle of the fried burdock does not have any burdocks, why?  How should I call it which any burdocks are not in?  Is it a fried tubular fish meat?

In the evening, I took a picture of the beautiful moon of a low position from a window. 

Are some electric wires obstructive? but I didn't have the time to take it from out side then.

And I have also no time to look at the moon at night, but enjoyed it with red wine after all the housework finished.....of course....from..... in front of PC.

After having got tired the wine I pour Chu-Hi into wine left at the bottom of the glass. The color was good & I could drink more & it was delicious, "three point wine" appeared! 

So everything was fine. After all the viewing the moon is the best. 

This is a picture which I took when I went to China with my hubby last year. I sorted the files and found it.

The chicken food eating in China is delicious. I think this was deep-fried.

Because it is only a picture of a food, I intend to arrange it. But the face glares at me, and refuses to be thrown away.

I recall that  he said to me in this way then   "The face is eatable, and the cockscomb is particularly delicious."  He was not going to eat while saying so just to have picked at the face with chopsticks.

We said "Good-bye" to the face after we played a staring game for a while. Now I wanna say "Thank you for the delicious meal!"

Do you know Garbanzo?  I am sometimes served the stewed bean when I go abroad.  The fact, I think the stew of lentil is common more than that. But I can not get it in the supermarket nearby.

I made the stew of garbanzo today. I cut vegetables left in a refrigerator to size of the dice and stewed it.

I like this light structure. However, it is mysterious whether I cannot let why bean soften though the bean to eat in Europe is softer.

I ate Bukake Ina-niwa Udon for lunch of a hot day, and I went to the gym after having eaten it. Then my stomach was heavy.

By the way, I made a boiled egg, because if I fried an egg, I must clean a frying pan with detergent. What a pain!.

I know there is one more good thing, it is less calorie than fried egg.
But, dried noodles 160g, 2 servings?  It's not less....?

Anyway, I was not able to make a boiled egg well last time. But it was made delicious today.
However, I cut it with chopsticks because of troublesome to cut it with knife. In any case the result is the same even if I cannot do it well.

I got a bulb for hydroponic cultivation.

This seems to be able to do with no water cultivation, too.

But I want to do hydroponics.

We can see flowering sprout.

A flower seems to bloom soon.

The root is going to come out here.

What is this?

Is it a root?  Is it a tail?  Is it a sexual organ?

Is it male??

I had a good time with my friends.

At a restaurant, though I ordered Tako-yaki, it looked like an omelet. The shape was not round. Strangely, the octopus is in the omelet.

Of course I had an okonomiyaki too, it was not enough for my belly. I ate and talked at the same time with my friends.

Because it was a lunch I did not drink. The restaurant seemed to be new, though it was strange Tako-Yaki of the form, was delicious.

I intended to come there with my family at night next time. I am going to drink, and my husband will take the wheel. It's a rule in my home.

Though it was so hot, I went shopping. And I took a picture of the sky from inside of car worked air conditioner.

Do you want to know what I bought?  Because I have short arms and long pockets, I use everything till dies. When my husband takes notice it, buys me new one. The scrubbing brush of the kitchen is so, too.

Recently the tip of the scrubbing brush wore down and was inconvenient. I said to him indirectly "A scrubbing brush became no use".

Then he said to me "Buy it by yourself" from far away. I reluctantly went shopping to get it by myself.

Thank you for reading! It is only scrubbing brush!  Do you want to listen to.... whether I do not have topics something interesting? 　no nothing special......I don't have any............    in any case,  It was too hot.

The heat that seems to be midsummer totally continues.

I soaked in a hot spring at the beginning of this month to relieve fatigue of the summer.
I must go once again.

Last weekend, I harvested Sudati (Citrus sudachi) at time of the weeding.
I was able to take only four in front side.
It is hot, and there are many larvas.
I cannot put a hand to back side.

These are still Sudati then.
But it seems to  be Kabosu (Citrus sphaerocarpa) if I put it a little more, and seem to become Citrus natsudaidai when I put it more.

I seasoned Yama-Kurage with tobanjan.

And the dish which ginger was in.

I cooked two kinds of side dishes. Both of them had good reputation for my family. I will buy the same thing again if I go to the Chinatown.

I got an e-mail from one of my friends a few days ago.

She has a plan to go to Egypt in next spring. So she wanted to ask me if I had been there. 

Though I want to go there, unfortunately I have not yet visited Egypt. I wrote the Egyptian state that I heard a trip friend and sent back an e-mail.

I often watch this program when there is time or during housework.

It is difficult for me as a home-maker to go abroad, therefore I enjoy the pictures. And when I find the pictures of places I know on the TV, I stop my hands.

Because it was on the box, I watched TV unintentionally then. Surprisingly, Egypt seemed to be a city, and also has a beautiful opera house.

I want to go to Egypt sometime if I have an opportunity. But the rest room by the pyramid seems to be very messy.

Does it become more clean than the old days?

As you know, it packs with some pumpkins, potatos, rice, onions, pears, in my refrigerator.

Therefore I cooked pumpkin soup to eat them. The things which I used are a pumpkin and an onion. I simmered them between of the work for a long time.

I seasoned soup with bouillon, and also added salt, pepper, bay leaf. Because I have not learned cooking, always make it with model-learning.

And it's even.........I do not know whether the people of the Mediterranean Sea eat a pumpkin, but I can say that it is like the soup which is popular at the Mediterranean Sea coast.

Anyhow my hubby liked it very much, so I was pleased. But he has not been to the Mediterranean Sea. I decide taste of the world cooking in my home. If I say "This is the taste of the Mediterranean Sea" , it will be.

I bought sashimi last night because I was alone, and I put it on vinegar rice. If there is a short time, I can easily cook it.

This is sesame frying of Yama-Kurage. Because it is a Chinese cooking ingredient, I cook it in Chinese style. Kon-nyaku is a Japanese thing though.

I bought it last time when I went to the Chinatown for eating out with my friend. It is crunchy like a pickle, yummy.

According to the news of TV, the security of Chinese vegetables is felt uneasy about. therefore I soaked it into water in twenty-four hours and exchanged water many times. It seems to have become the burdock which was somehow dull.

On the next time, I will try to cook this food boiled and seasoned, or something cold.

I went shopping after having eaten meager lunch since I did it for a while.

As the meal leaved something to be desired, it's been a while since I bought the doughnuts. I think that I did not buy it for two years at least.

The doughnut which I ate was delicious in old days. I liked French cruller and Sugar raised (I'm not sure the spelling) very much.

Recently I did not feel these delicious and did not buy it. But, for me who was starving, these were highest feasts.

A good appetite is a good sauce......and Hunger has no low (laughing)

Friday
My weight : 59.30kg
The distance I ran : ***km / **min
Sit-ups : 200times
Body fat percentage : 25.8%

Body fat : 15.2kg

【Mumble an excuse】

Because two air-conditioners were broken, I drank beer after work every night. 
And I ate the doughnuts too. 
Then I grew up.
My weight exceeded 59kg.
It will be reach 60kg soon.

I'm not on diet, but maybe I should cut down drinking. 

Because I will be busy from afternoon, I must finish it early when there are trivial routine duties. Then I went out from morning, and had lunch.

Last time, I was surprised to eat a tasteless fried meal set, but took courage, and challenged a Japanese meal set today in the same restaurant (G+st).

I was able to take a picture well. But there was little quantity. It is only half of the quantity that I usually eat.

Only a small thin hamburger steak and little tofu served cold. I was worried about whether my stomach lasted for two hours. So.....anyway, I ate the rice all, though it was not delicious.

However, when I am hungry, I buy a lot. In the refrigerator being full.....

I ate ramen, recently in a favorite restaurant named  "Rai-Rai tei" ??  or  "Rai-Rai ken"??  or....."Koi-Koi tei"....?

Though I have been to the restaurant many times,  I can't say the name. Of course I know the advertising display and place. But don't remember the name.

For a wonder, it is my charming point (I wanna think so), I don't know why, but my husband says ..... " You are a kind of Ten-Nen or a Irresponsible Person"

By the way, I knew a recommendation for the best eating at the restaurant. My husband told me it is known for Negi-Ramen.

I saw a mountains of leek on ramen, and  it was only a green part of the leeks. I was surprised at the amount of leek.

I heard it's only 30 customers can order on a day. So I was lucky to eat it.

There is a curve  y=f(x)

And there are the points (1,0),(0,-2) on it.

Tangent line of the curve in the point (x,y) is 
　　3x²- ax -1

Do arithmetic f (x).

This is a problem that there is to a textbook of the senior high school. A student asked me. Do the all of you solve?

It is the first time that I write a problem of the mathematics with English.
But it is OK to me whether all of you reading this can do it or not.
Because it is for fun, and for studying English.

I do not know whether such a way of writing is right.

We have been sent a box of pear by a friend of my husband.

I wanna take off my hat to the friend's kindness, because he send us it every year. But there is a thing  troubled with only one.

There are two refrigerators in my home. A lot of rice is jam-packed in the One. And the rice which does not put into the One occupies the half of the second refrigerator; because lot's of worms(!!!) were there when I put it out. So the next refrigerator was crammed in rice too.

I took time and cleaned up a refrigerator, and put in all of pears. After that, I called my mother-in-law that she should not send rice to me for a while. She always laughs, but I am afraid of the worms. It's no laughing matter, mom!!

Well....., there is a few space for beer to cool, it's happiness for me.

This is a ruby ring platinum setting with diamonds which I bought when I gained reemployment.

I used to go out in a suit or a dress every day. But I live by wearing pants and a T-shirt of the cotton now.

Therefore I do not have any opportunities to wear this. But I studied what was a good jewel.

Now, if I had the same amount of money, I would buy more beautiful ruby.  However, there is not the chance to wear it.　　This ring has too many diamonds for a housewife like me.

 " One must have been cold to appreciate warmth, one must be tired to understand the luxury of repose, and herein is one of the rewards of country life, in a time when civilized people exert themselves to eliminate all such satisfying contrasts from the daily routine. The countryman is still lucky enough to be cold and tired at times, and so to know the glow of pleasure that follows."

When I was doing English workbook, found this sentence. I thought it was written by male.

My husband of a office worker must go for work every day, but he can spend all day long in the comfortable room if he goes to the company.

On the other hand, I who am in the house do housework, and get sweaty on a hot summer day. I use automatic dishwasher and automatic washing machine, but only a machine does not do everything.

I must work to prepare meals every day, and even if the outside is too hot, I must hung out to dry.

I live in a city, but know the convenience of the air-conditioner and the value of the restaurant enough.

When is " Coming of autumn"?  I'm waiting for autumn. I already enjoyed nature to the full enough.

The octopus rice and sweets were served in the last.

It passed more than one hour since I began to eat then. And my stomach was already full. But I forgot to take a picture and already ate a little. I knew I couldn't do it! 

Any way, I have room for dessert (it's a set expression). I can eat dessert with the full stomach.
