Pancake

Today I went to Shinjyuku and ate a pancake.

 

I ordered the sweet potato pancake.

 

Pancake was sweet and it was like a cake.

 

Sweet potato paste was rich-tasting.

 

It was delicious.

 

wake up early

I woke up early this morning.

 

When I opened the curtain,

 

the color of the sky was so beautiful :)

 

The sky of the winter is so clear,

 

so I like it.

 

 

And I ate an apple cheeze cake which I made last night.

 

It was so tasty than I had expected ;)

 

Usually I wake up late and I don't have enough time except for prepareing.

 

But today I recognized that

 

waking up early is nice and I can use time more efficient.

 

I noticed that though today is the last working day of this year...

 

I will try to wake up early from next year!

hamburg steak

I cooked the hamburg steak a few days ago.

 

 

Today I made the cream stew for dinner and baked the rest of the hamburg.

 

Then put it on the saffron rice.

 

The taste was so so.

 

I like cooking ;)

BROZERS'

Yesterday I went to the hamburger shop BROZERS' near my house.

 

I ordered the pine apple hamburger.

 

The combination of them was so nice.

 

It was so big hamburger!!

 

the leaf viewing 2

Last weekend I went to the leaf vieweing with my friends again.

 

This time we went to the Rikugien.

 

It is Japanese garden.

 

The leaf have turned red already.

 

Um..so beautiful.

 

 

When I told mom that I would go to the leaf viewing on the previous day,

 

she said that 'oh the leaf viewing... so you have to buy Momiji manju'.

 

Momiji manju is the famous sweet souvenir of Hiroshima.

 

It has the shape of the leaf.

 

I searched the store where I could get it in Tokyo,

 

and finally I could find.

 

It was sold at Mitsukoshi whish is the famous department store.

 

So I went there only to get Momiji manjyu in the rain...

 

 

When we were enjoying viewing the colorful leaves,

 

we found the street performers.

 

They were spinning the plate with their foreheads.

 

Then we continued walking...

 

Oh again Momiji manjyu...

 

I also found the green carpet.

 

So beautiful.

 

After that one another friend joined us and we had Turkish lunch.

 

It was so tasty.

The interior decorating of that restaurant was also nice.

 

It was a good holiday.

 



The autumn leaves

Today I met my friend at Shinjyuku.

 

We had lunch together.

 

I ate wheat noddle.

 

Then we went to Shinjyuku Gyoen to see the autumn leaves.

 

Flowers were also beautiful.

 

There were many kinds of chrysanthemum.

 

We found white one.

My friend said that this was like a 'Ika syuumai' which was the steamed Chinese dumpling of squid.

 

 The real Ika Shuumai is this.

 

Um...as she said,

 

they are very similar.

The leaves hasn't turned red compeletely yet.

 

But it was beautiful and walking outside was good exercise.

 

I could have myself refreshed.



This morning

Every morning

 

when I wake up,

 

I open the curtain at first.

 

But then I am still sleepy so go back to my bed and sleep more 30 minutes.

 

But this morning when I opend the curtain,

 

the color of the sky was beautiful.

 

So I opened the window and took the photo.

 

The air of the morning was cold.

 

So I wake up completely.

 

As a result I didn't go back to my bed today.

 

 

I could relax and clean my room in the morning because I had time.

Umm...

 

To wake up early is good.
