Ikebana -- April 10, 2012

On a lovely spring day, we had an Ikebana lesson of April at a new place. Materials today were iriseｓ, small yellow chrysanthemums and a kind of willow branches. Sometimes a lady hesitated a little to cut lively stems shorter. A cup of coffee with snacks and a chat after the lesson was pleasant.

Cooking -- April 4, 2012

We enjoyed the fish menu today. Yellow tail sautee with
Balsamico sauce, sea bream salad, and short-necked
clam miso soup. As it was a beautiful day, we had
a lunch at the balcony. It was very relaxing and fun
time.
