Cookies

I have one more favorite cookies. It is from Hawai'i. My friend gave it to me today. It's so yummy!(www.bigislandcandies.com)
She also showed me some beautiful pictures while we had a lunch. She had taken them in Hawai'i.
It was nice time. I never been to Hawai'i, but some of my friends show me Hawai'ian photos.I always feel good.
Most of the pictures I saw today are flowers. She really likes to take a pictures of flowers and she is a good photographer.
I thought she has to make a post card by her photo. It must be good.

I like "Shortbread Cookies" Big Island Candies, delicious chocolates and cookies.

the water!

I like to drink hot tea and coffee and so I really like to look for a nice cup for drinking tea.In Japan we have some good pottery and I went to Arita in Kyushu last year.I bought my cup there.It is white and blue.I like the colour.
I don't drink cold water.I used to drink cold tap water since I was a child,but now I don't drink it.When I want to drink cold water,I bought a bottle of water or I boiled water and drink.We can drink tap water,but taste is not good in a city.If you go to mountain side ,you can drink nice water.It is really good.Japanese water is mild.Where the water you drink come from?

Hawaiian Music!

I like to listen to the music. Music makes me happy. I haven't been to Hawaii, but I have some friends who learn hula dance. They invited me a show last year and I saw many people danced hula and I knew many Japanese liked to dance hula. I was not interested in Hawaii, but the Hawaiian music made me relax and the dancer always dance with nice smile, I could go to Keali'i Reichel concert in summer. I was so lucky!
In winter my friends practice very hard and waiting for the next show in spring and summer! and I'm looking forward seeing them! We are going have a big Hawaiian event in May in Osaka.

sun flowers!

In Japan there are four seasons, spring, summer, autumn, and winter.I watched TV and knew that a sun flower has bloomed and other flowers don't recognize that we are in winter now.Some trees still change colour and hold red leaves like autumn.I think it is just a little part of problems and it is visible.I can't see other problems right now.There are 365days in a year,and 90days should be winter.If we can't feel four seasons, what does happen next?

Tomorrow new season will begin.

It's winter!

Today we can see the full moon .It is really cold in Japan.According to the weather report, today is the coldest day in this season but we have not cold winter in this year.Stop global warming.

Global climate change is "very likely" to have a human cause, an influential group of scientists has concluded.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) said temperatures were probably going to increase by 1.8-4C (3.2-7.2F) by the end of the century.
It also projected that sea levels were most likely to rise by 28-43cm, and global warming was likely to influence the intensity of tropical storms.(by BBC 2007.2.2)
