2ヵ月 the second month

ゴー君、ヤーちゃん順調に成長中！
今日で2ヵ月が経ちました。この調子でドンドン大きくなれっ！
まだ、実がなる兆しは無いけど夏になれば大豊作！のはず・・・。

Go-kun and Ya-chan is well growing up!

Today is the day of second month of them.

Let’s growing up more and more!

Looks they haven’t bear fruit yet but in summer, I must have good crop…maybe.

中国出張2013年6月 2013Jun Business trip in China

23日から中国出張。
今回は、初めて自力で上海の地下鉄を利用。
キップの買い方さえ解ってれば、全然使えるしとっても便利だよね。
そんな訳で23日は、移動日でしたので地下鉄を上海中心部で
途中下車し、人民広場の前で写真撮影。
まぁ～、特に変った物も無く大都会・・・。そりゃ上海だもんな。

I was on business trip to China from 23^rd.

This time, I’ve used Shanghai subway by myself as first experience.

If I know how to buy subway ticket, it is very useful for going to everywhere.

23^rd was settled as moving day so I’ve got off subway at center in Shanghai and took a picture in front of “Jinmin park”.

Shanghai is very big city so there are lots of buildings.

The meaning is nothing special for me….

You know, it is Shanghai.

咲いた!!! Bloom!!!

ゴー君やりました！
本日遂に、最初の花を咲かせてくれました。
こいつは、雄花なので実は生りませんが、オスが居るからメスが居る。
雌花もどんどん咲く事を期待して、2人の成長を見守りたいと思います。
ちなみに本日2回目の摘心をしましたよ。
素人でも結構やれるもんだと自画自賛です。

Go-kun did it!

Today, he finally blooms first flower.

This is male so he cannot bear fruit bitter melon but you know, because male exists so female can exist too.

I expect many female will appear soon and I want to follow their growth.

Anyway, today I’ve done second time thinning.

I’m beginner of kitchen garden but I think I’m doing good job and well caring them.

来たぜっ！アスパラ！ Asparagus is coming!

北海道の美味しい物。
そりゃ、蟹、ウニ、ホッケなどなどの海産物が色々有るけど、この時期に外せないのは
アスパラやトウキビ、ジャガイモ等の農産物よ～。
アスパラってスーパーで買うと高いんだよな～。
でも、北海道では生える、生えるぅ～（笑
あっちゃん！有難う！
悪友？”篤子さん”から、今日アスパラが大量に届きました！
アスパラ大好き！
アスパラって太い方が好き？それとも細い方？
俺は絶対細いのの先ッチョよ。

あぁ～、明日の朝飯が待て無いぃ・・・・。

There are lots of yummy foods in Hokkaido.

Crab, sea urchin and arabesque greenling are, of cause, famous sea food but in this season, we must check farm products too, Asparagus, corn, potato and etc.

You know if we buy asparagus in super market, it is very expensive.

3 pieces are about JPY100.

But in Hokkaido, they are well growing up!

Thank you Acchan!

My very nice bad friend “atsuko-san” has given me this amount of many asparaguses.

I love asparagus!

Do you like thin one or thick one?

I must choose thin asparagus and especially top part, I like.

Oh~~~, I cannot wait tomorrow breakfast…

45日目 the 45th day

種蒔きしてから、45日目の朝です。
彼らの将来に期待して、早くも先週肥料を豆乳！いやいや投入！
まぁ～、嫁の母ちゃんのアドバイスなんだけどね。（笑
今やワシは、この子達の親として多少の出費は惜しみません。
そんな訳で、エサ￥298なり～。

This morning is the 45^th day from sowing bitter melon.

I expect their great future so I already gave them manure last week.

Honestly say it is advice from mother in low.

Now I’m as their parent, I don’t grudge spending little money for them.

So the price of manure was JPY298.

で、彼らの成長は？というと。
こんな感じで、超イイ感じ！

現時点で既に￥3,000弱を出資してるので・・・。
30個は生ってくれないと・・・スーパーで買った方が安い。
でも誰が30個も食べれんねん。って話にもなるな・・。

And you may want to know how they growing up, right?

They are nicely getting bigger!

I’ve already spent almost JPY3,000 so otherwise they bear fruit at least 30 pieces, buying them in super market is cheaper.

But on the other hand, there is other problem.

If I could really get 30 pieces of bitter melon, who is going to eat as much as 30 piece?

ちょっと贅沢 Little luxury

今年でワシも40歳。
そろそろ、安酒をガブ飲みするのは卒業しないと体がもたない。
そんな訳で最近、ちょっとだけ高い焼酎を舐める様に飲んでます。
手始めに2種類、”閻魔”と”神の河”を買ってみましたが、ワシには
味の違いが良く解らなかった。
そんな訳で、100円ちょっと安い”神の河”でしばらくチビチビ楽しみたいと
思います。
それにしても、美味い焼酎は九州に集まってるなぁ～。

This year, I will be 40 years old.

You know, I don’t want to accept but truth is I’m already not young generation so I have to graduate to drink lots of cheap alcohol everyday because of my health condition.

So I started to drink little good shochu like licking it nowadays

I’ve bought 2 brands of shochu, “Enma” and “Kan-noko”, but I couldn’t recognize the taste difference of them so I’ll choose “Kan-noko” and want to enjoy drinking bit by bit.

Anyway, this time I could know afresh that really, most of tasty shochu is made at the Kyushu Island.

洗濯機 Wash machine

さぁ、新居に引っ越しをして最後の大物買い！
それは洗濯機！
今まで使っていた洗濯機は、大阪で中古で買った奴なので十分頑張ってくれました。
特に壊れた訳では無いけど、9年間働いてくれたので大満足で買い替えです。
で、我が家に本日来たのは、日立ビートウォシュＢＷ-7ＰＶ。
何時ものパターンで、新機種が出たので旧機種買い。
価格は4万円でした。
多分もう少し待てば3万5千円位まで下がったと思うのですが、今回は5千円の為に
もう数回電機屋に行くのが面倒に思ったので決めてしまいました。

This is the last shopping of house electrical appliances after moving new house.

That is Wash machine!

Wash machine, now I’m using, was bought in Osaka with used condition so it really well worked.

It is still fine but it has worked for over 9 years so I could buy new one with big satisfaction.

So today new wash machine was coming to my house and it is Hitachi Beat Wash BW-7PV.

New model was released so I’ve bought old model as usual.

The price was JPY40,000.

I think maybe if I could wait more some weeks, it will become about JPY5,000 cheaper but this time, I felt troublesome to go to electric shop some more times for getting JPY5,000 discount so I’ve decided buying.

1ヵ月 One month

さてさて、今日から6月スタート！
我が家のゴー君とヤーちゃんもスクスク育ち、もうちょっとでネットに届く所まで
成長してます。
園芸ネットの都合上、プランターを反転させたので手前がヤーちゃん、奥がゴー君に
入れ替わってます。
気付いた方も多いと思いますが、嫁のネギはご臨終！（笑）
我が家のベランダは、風が強いので立ってられなかった様です。

Everybody, Jun started from today.

My babies Go-kun and Ya-chan is well growing up and they may catch net soon.

I’ve turned planter for they can catch gardening net easily so Go-kun and Ya-chan’s place is changed.

Now, Ya-chan is left and Go-kun is right side.

You may be awake my wife’s leeks are passed away.

They couldn’t keep standing because strong wind is always blowing at my house porch.
