Spring has come...

Hello, these days outside is very cold...and the end of February, we had snow in Chiba. That is pretty rare in this area. On the other hand, I feel coming of spring in our small garden. These photos are the tulip bulbs, which my mom planted. We can see how the plants grow up, and how strong the nature power is.

Tasha Tudor - whom i wanted to meet

Do you know “Tasha Tudor (1915-2008)”?

She is one of America’s best-known and beloved illustrators, and also, very famous for her artistic garden in Vermont. To our surprise, her beautiful garden area is 20 times larger than Tokyo Dome.

I knew her through TV and heard from my mom. Tasha loved the nature, animals, hand-made lifestyle, and left many lovely messages. I’d like to grow up like her.

For your info.

lovely face

Please... please look at the above picture! What a lovely face it is!! As soon as I saw the photo, I was falling love with him... Maybe he is very greedy, so cannot stop eating lol What was he thinking about when this picture was taken? That's very interesting ;-)

Recently I'm tired of job hunting and others, so strongly need "healing". Watching him is one of my relaxation now lol So if you like animals or nature, please visit the following site. You may find more favorite one :-) Anyway, soooo cute!

Building 7 at KUIS

The other day, i had a lunch at building7's café at KUIS. It was rare for me to buy lunch because almost everyday my mom makes my lunch box. Anyway on that day, i didn’t have any lunch, so i bought a “Octopus rice” for the first time at building7. Here is the picture.

The taste, flavor, and textures were very nice. What’s more, the scenery from the window is great. I was feeling like a rich. And also, the sunset is ”fabulous”.

book review 2

What a lovely, heartwarming, and a peaceful story it is... Do you know “Frog and Toad Are Friends” written by Arnold Lobel? This is a book for children, but actually, also for adult. Especially i love the story, titled “THE LETTER”. It is very simple story, but after reading it, my heart was full of love...something special. This is a book which i want to read before bedtime.
