The sigh becomes a butterfly  in the flower field

This is a haiku poetry written by a 17-year-old Japanese schoolgirl.

I've introduced it here because the sensibility of "a sigh becomes a butterfly" is so wonderful.

On the back of the Oi, Ocha tea bags, haiku by boys and girls from all over the country are introduced, and I look forward to reading them every time I make tea.

Green tea is one of the oldest Japanese zen traditions, originating from Eisai, a Zen monk around the 12th century. The supposedly bitter matcha green tea flavour is now mixed with sugar and milk and is popular all over the world. I regularly use "Oi, Ocha" tea bags for this time-honoured green tea, which is super easy and tasty.

"ため息は、蝶になりけり、花畑"

これは日本の17歳の女子高生が作った俳句。「ため息が蝶になる」という感性がとても素晴らしいので、ご紹介した。

「お〜い、お茶」のティーバッグの裏には、全国の少年少女たちの俳句が紹介されている（以前は大人バージョンだったような）毎回、お茶を入れる度に楽しみに読んでいる。

緑茶は、12世紀ごろの禅僧、栄西由来の日本古来の伝統の一つ。苦ーいはずの抹茶味は、砂糖とミルクを混ぜ、現在では世界中で人気の味となっている。その由緒正しい緑茶を、私は超簡単で美味な「お〜い、お茶」のティーバッグを常用して飲んでいる。

絵画で言えば、気の遠くなるようなルネサンスのテンペラ技法から、油で描けるが乾くのに時間がかかり面倒な油絵具へ、そして乾きが早く水で洗えるアクリル絵具に進化し、今やAIアプリを使えば、手を汚す必要すらない…みたいなものだ。

Here's something very special. I received an extremely early, generous and downright magical Christmas present 🎁

It's a 1989 taishōgoto synthesizer, it is unreal and I'm all kinds of emotional over it 💗

Japanese Culture and Samurai Tradition | Oni

Oni are a popular symbol in Japanese culture, particularly in the samurai tradition. The oni is a demon or ogre-like creature from Japanese folklore, depicted as having a red or blue face with horns, sharp teeth, and a fearsome expression. They are said to represent the darker side of human nature such as anger, jealousy, and greed. In samurai culture, the oni is often associated with the idea of the warrior's inner demons. Samurai were expected to be stoic and disciplined, and the oni is a reminder that even the strongest warriors have their own inner struggles. An oni mask displayed in the home of a samurai is a present reminder of their commitment to facing and overcoming these demons, both in battle and in life.

Lady Ochiba Costume Design by Carlos Rosario

Lady Ochiba was all about power and wealth. The number of layers, her cotton tabis and her luxurious fabrics determined her higher rank.

On January 7th, “Nana Kusa Gayu” (Seven Grass Porridge) is traditionally eaten in Japan, a rice porridge made with, as the name implies, seven different “grasses”, or herbs. The dish is meant to ward off sickness and accidents in the new year, and each of the seven herbs are included for specific reasons, which you can read about here. Mutsumi made us our bowls this morning using a freeze-dried mix as it’s hard to find these fresh herbs in NYC, and she served it with umeboshi plum, three types of konbu seaweed, pickled watermelon radish and fresh sansho pepper, with mitsuba leaves on top of the porridge. Here’s to a safe and healthy 2023!!
