Today I cooked macaroni-gratin.

But, I am not up to my mother as a chef !
My mother can to cook everything, and she cooks very well.
I think my mother's dishes are best to me !
I will learn cooking from my mother in a new year.

There are autumn's dishes.

Grilled salmon and mushrooms,
Boiled turnips, chicken, and bean-starch
vermicelli. And I boiled rice with turnip's leaves.

Hmmmm.....
Why does the weekend pass so fast?

I love Japanese culture

I learned to dressing for Kimono.

Today I graduated from dressing class of regular course,
and I got a certificate.　The regular course is to put on the
Kimono for myself.

Today I decided to learn to graduate course.
The graduate course is to put on the Kimono for other people.
If I master to put on the Kimono for the other people, I would
to put on the Kimono for my sisters.

I have 3 sisters.
So, if they want to put Kimono, I would to help them.
It's very wonderful isn't ?

I feel many country's culture is very deep.
Japanese culture is very deep, too.

I was born to the Japanese, and I want to understand
the culture of Japan more deeply.

I love Japanese culture !

the power that today live got !
