Permed Me!


I had my hair permed.
This is the second time to make my hair this much messy. :-)

I like it very much.
And so far, I am enjoying to see people's reactions with open eyes surprise!

Spring is the time for wild edible plants

Bamboo Shoots,
These are also brought by a guy who digged them just this morning.

The most precious thing with these freely given foods is in it that we were remembered when someone harvested something tasty and he/her thought of bringing them to us.
It surely made all of us happy, even the one who gave it to us.

The tip to get something tasty for free is not to hesitate to share with people anything I found nice and not to hesitate give out things that I found it will make someone happy.
We have to stimulate a circulation of caring by starting giving out.

Also not to forget the feeling of thanksness. :-)

Gifted Dinner


Living in my place srounded by many good people (many farming, sometimes a fisherman), most of the time, in my dishes, there are something that are given from someone.

Last night, all of these are given from a fisherman (abalone and smoked scallop) and from my friend (freshly harvested asparagus).
I brought these to my friends' house and we shared food and happy time together.
