メジロ
Tumblr media
2023.3.11
今日は荒山公園に梅がまだ咲いていることを期待して行って来ました。
思いの外咲いてない。もっと咲いてるかと思ってたらシーズンはもう終わりな感じです。
どうしよっかなぁって思ってたらメジロが飛んで来てくれました。
メジロって見つけたら撮りますよね。撮りやすい場所に来てくれますものね。でも、撮ろうと思ってカメラを構えたら逃げていきますよね。それで動きが早いんです。
メジロだって思って撮り始めたら、あっという間に100枚ぐらい撮りませんか?シャッターチャンスってほんの一瞬ですもんね。
そんな訳で、荒山公園は早めに切り上げて花の文化園に行ってみたけれど、ここの梅林もほぼ終わりの状態でした。
今年の梅シーズンはもう終わりですね。

ろんぐたいむのーしー
春が目の前にいます。
色々なものが切り替わったり、始まる季節です。
同時に、これまでを振り返ることもあるような時期です。
新しくなる生活、学校や職場に向けてわくわくしている人がいます。
一方で、今まで当たり前にいた友達や同僚が近くにいなくなってしまったり、去年の今頃立てた目標が達成できていなかったりで、不安や悲しさが一気に押し寄せている人もいます。
もちろん、特に何も変わらない人もいます。
自分で繋いでいく、そして繋がっていく縁。
御縁という単語はとても気に入っていて、友達がよく使っている言葉でもあります。
今日の選択を未来で後悔したって、その後悔はもっと先を照らしてくれると思っています。
だから、選ぶときは、最後は自信を持って決めたいと思いました。その分、後悔したときはしっかり反省する。
冬明けから春の始まりまでの期間を、一部では梅春って言うらしいです。
前回の更新が去年末だと知って、いい加減書こうと思って来たマック。ホットコーヒーだけだとなんだか寂しいと思ったので、オレオ入りのフルーリーを頼んだら、今胃がびっくりしてます。
これは、相性いいなと思ったので、後悔はしてません。

So guys, did you know about Google lens?? That it can translate text in an image?! I just discovered this function on my phone the other day, and I was able to "read" a package that was in Japanese!
Here's the package. I can read hiragana and katakana but I suck at kanji. I know the last kanji is "cha" (tea), and the hiragana says "kobu", but I didn't know what "kobucha" is.
Tumblr media
I knew it was some sort of beverage powder. I wasn't sure if kobucha is the same thing as kombucha.
Here's the back:
Tumblr media
Do I just add water? Does it need to ferment, or what? No idea. Then I found out I can do this:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Isn't that wild?? This is sooo great! I have so many things I can't read, and now I will be able to!
So, in case you are having a hard time reading the translated image, this is "umekobucha". Ume is plum, and kobucha is kombucha (a fermented drink made of kelp). I've never actually had kombucha before, even though it seems to be all the rage and is available everywhere. Fermented kelp doesn't sound too appealing to me, but I'm willing to give umekobucha a try.

Day 25/100.
Kitchen purge continued...
Tumblr media
My pill container and pill cutter. I actually only have one daily prescription pill, but I found that I would sometimes forget whether I had taken it or not! So the pill container eliminates doubt. But I also use it for vitamins that I want to remember to take.
Nori (dried seaweed). For making sushi rolls. My daughter loves them but I haven't made them in a long time. I should make them for her again soon.
Salt. Use this almost daily for cooking. Would be nice to have a nicer container for it one day.
Container of spices in bags. I should look through it.
Here's all what's in the container:
Tumblr media
Bay leaves
Black pepper
Marjoram
"Italian seasoning" (marjoram, thyme, rosemary, savory, sage, oregano, sweet basil)
Chili powder
Curry powder
A packet of salt.
I put the marjoram into the bag of Italian seasoning. I refilled jars of curry and chili that I have sitting on the stove. I put what little was left in an almost empty jar of cayenne pepper into the chili powder, then filled the empty cayenne pepper jar with black pepper and re-labelled it. I emptied the packet of salt into the salt container. Here's what's left!
Tumblr media
Yay, purge! Now I have room in that container for other bags of spices I'm sure I'll find.
Oh no. This looks intimidating.
Tumblr media
Breathe-in, breathe-out. Just take it one item at a time.
Tumblr media
Mrs Dash "original blend" (onion, spices [black pepper, parsley, celery seed, basil, bay, marjoram, oregano, savoury, thyme, cayenne pepper, coriander, cumin, mustard, rosemary], garlic, carrot, orange peel, tomato, lemon juice powder, citric acid, oil of lemon).
Montreal Steak Spice (salt, spices, dehydrated onion and garlic, hydrogenated vegetable oil, red pepper). Now, it doesn't specify what spices, but Montreal steak spice will generally contain: garlic, coriander/cumin, dill seed, red pepper flakes/cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt, and maybe also paprika and onion powder. So we can assume there's something like those spices in here. I can definitely smell the black pepper and cumin.
Tikka masala spice mix. Again, it doesn't specify what spices, but tikka masala could contain: coriander seed, cumin seed, black pepper, red chili, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, turmeric and/or nutmeg.
Whole red chili peppers (dried).
Himalayan pink salt
A packet of something Japanese I received as part of a gift. I know that the writing says "kobucha" but I have no idea what that is!
Tumblr media
Oh! It's plum-kelp tea powder! Just add water, stir and enjoy!🍵
Oh, no. What are all the little bags??
Tumblr media
Right. So we have:
More of the vitamins my kid doesn't like 😕
Onion powder
Sesame seeds
Some packets of salt & black pepper
Some chocolate crumbs
Some more chocolate crumbs
An opened packet of French onion soup mix
Ok, I'm just gonna take those damn vitamins myself 🙄 I've put them with my other supplements. I emptied the packets of salt & pepper into the steak spice mix. The chocolate crumbs and opened soup mix are in the garbage. The onion powder and sesame seeds fit into the container of bagged spices that I just finished purging. Progress!
Next layer of strata:
Tumblr media
Chestnuts. Enjoy by March 12, 2020 😕
More curry powder
Thyme leaves
More thyme leaves
Garlic, onion and red pepper mix
Chocolate I was hiding from my kids! 😄
Chestnuts are in the garbage. I filled the jar of curry powder on the stove-top right to the top. Still some left in the bag. One bag of thyme leaves I added to the "Italian spice"/Mrs Dash "original blend" mix. The garlic, onion and red pepper mix has unspecified spices in them, but it smelled like Mrs Dash, so I added it to that mix as well. Consolidate all these dribs and drabs of spices. It smells like what you might put on chicken or fish. So I'm going to call it my "fish and poultry seasoning".
The chocolate I will put where I can find it so it doesn't get lost again!
The final layer:
Tumblr media
Garam masala
Cardamom
Celery salt (I' be been looking for this!!! I knew I bought some!)
An empty jar for cream of tartar
Blue sugar? 🤔
Some ziplock bags and a party-favour bag
Blue sugar is in the garbage and the container is in the dishwasher. Party-favour bag is in the recycling bin. I realized that the plastic bags are for mixing together spices and/or breadcrumbs!
Wow, so much space in the basket now!
Tumblr media
See? Sometimes when something looks like an overwhelming mess, you just need to break it down into smaller, less overwhelming parts. Approach it one thing at a time.

白梅
Tumblr media
2024.2.15
小学3年の次男が最近、野球のグローブを買ってやたらと野球やキャッチボールをやりたがる。
仕方がないので休みの日に大泉緑地に出かけてキャッチボールをすることになるんですけど、私はキャッチボールよりも写真を撮ることにしか興味がない訳なんです。
でも、やってるうちに私の方が本気になってきて、なんか捕り方とか教えてるんですよね。撮り方ではなくボールの捕り方。らしくないなーって思いながらも楽しい時間でした。
で、キャッチボールにも満足して、さぁ撮りに行こうかと思ったら曇り始める。あんなに晴れていたのに曇ってくる。
まぁ仕方ないよねって思ってたら次男が梅を見て写真の撮り方を私に教えてくる。なんか面白くなってきて「ふんふん」って聞いてたら、意外にも的を得たことを言っている。
この子センスあるなって思ってたら天気も晴れたきた。なんか子供って面白いですよね。
