A resident and her daughter went to downtown for grocery shopping, the other day. A stranger came and asked them if they were on Haruhi-dayori a little ago. Her daughter told me that her mother was active so that they had a good talk for a while. I’m very glad to know people in this community looking over and supporting us very much, owing to Haruhi-dayori which ties us to the community.

Mr. U who likes drinking sake loves the scallions pickled last year. Please make qality one this year as well!

By the way,we asked them to make something for the residents who don’t drink. Then, we’ve got one request.

Plum Jam!…comes from…well, Mr. U, again!

It’s his favorite, too!

We pickled cucumbers in sake lees immediately after pickled in salt and sun-dried.

“Wow, this tastes very good.”

They put enough sake lees to cucumbers, having bites sometimes.

We prayed to God with our hands folded for our success!

We’ve got tons of cucumbers from our neighbors and resident’s family.

We really appreciate it.

Ms. T was cutting cucumbers, so I went to look for a camera.

Well, I could find it before she’s done.

She’s usually done very fast before taking a photo.

Q-taro: “Oh, are we gonna have only cucumbers today?”

Ms. T: “No, oh..well, I should not do things like this. My son would get mad at me!”

Q-taro:” Anyway, you must be something, cutting these so fast, even though you’re chatting and not looking!”

Ms. T was reading an article of the news paper, and said

“Oh my goodness, 75 % of the aged die at hospital while 12 % of them die at home.

That is, people who don’t eat good food at home live longer than those of hospital!

Well, it means that it is better to be left alone at home than to be taken to hospital!

Nanta Lucia. Nanta Lucia! “(What a surprise! what a surprise! (LOL))

Well, it must give us a different view! It makes a sense, in a way (LOL).
