The chrysanthemum and the garlic

The vegetable "Chrysanthemum " are growing up now.



Since I started growing vegetables, I often check the websites about gardening. One day, a few people wrote about starting growing the garlic on the net. Then I thought about it again. I have some garlic at home because I bought them at the supermarket a few days ago. I wanted to try to plant the garlic and I planted seeding of the garlic that I bought at the supermarket. I hope that they'll grow up.

The mackerel and chrysanthemum

Last night, I went to the supermarket where is close to my appartment. When I looked for foods in the supermarket, I found one fish.

The mackerel!!!

The price was only 200 yen. So I bought it and I enjoyed cooking my dinner at home.



In Japan, they often eat the chrysanthemum. Of course, I am growing them. I need more time to eat them. I think I will be able to eat them after about 2 months.



I will try to keep growing some of them because I want to see the flowers of the chrysanthemum.

By the way, I read the news about the world cup of FIFA. I can't wait to watch the games of the football next year!

The salad of Potherb Mustard "Mizuna"

When I get up in the morning, I feel colder every day. I think that Japanese season will become a winter.

Although I didn't upload my blog, I had a great time. For example, we went to Asakusa temple, Ueno park, the Ukiyoe museum etc.

I really thank him and I hope that we will meet again.

By the way, my vegetables are bigger.

One day, I picked some Potherb Mustard "Mizuna" from my balcony balcony and I made a salad by myself.

This dish is soy beans "Nattou" and Tofu. I ate rice with this.
