I am so busy that I can’t write something here today.
Slowly but surely, the season is heading towards winter.

I usually buy the neck part of yellow-tail. Although many packages of slices of body are on the shelves, I think those slices are a little small for the main dishes in supper.
Today’s yellow-tail came from Hokkaido. I enjoyed eating.

These sweet potato are vulnerable to insect damage because they are improved to have more sweetness. I am wondering how the professional producers, I mean farmers, take a countermeasure against this kind of damage. Do they mix pesticides into the ground? I have never used pesticides to vegetables in my garden, although I do that for some fruit trees.

This is just a tiny open space of a Shinto Shrine. In old times the locations was surrounded by flood-prone rice field in the northern Japan.
There used to be many kids playing here after classes of elementary school. Nowadays, very few kids are there.
I know it is completely impossible to be back to what I was of forty-five years ago.

I planted several citrus fruit trees in my garden. One of them, Hyuganatsu has got the first two fruits. They are still green. And I worry about their falling before ripening. But if I got the fruits, I would like to make jam.

I harvested beans from my garden. The easiest way to cook them is to put into rice cooker together with rice. Rice can be as “O-Sekihan” which Japanese like to eat in celebration (though I don’t have anything to celebrate these days).

I can see the blue sky behind.

If I had time to repair…

Every morning I eat this kind of dish with Miso soup, one slice of toast, and a cup of hot milk.
