I keep this blog for friends, family and students in Japan& the U.S.

Since Spring '07, Zen and Taka moved to California full time for Zen's basketball career. I'm in California most of the time right now too. Almost every day I go to help my Grandmom. She was born in 1919. Taka and I also get to work for Uncle Lynn's landscaping company. Santa Cruz, California. As beautiful as ever. However I still feel homesick for Japan~~

Autumn in Santa Cruz 2010


I was at Uncle Lynn's Landscaping yard, he had me clean out this little green house, and he showed me a couple of plants right by it.










Uncle Lynn asked me to guess what this was...I guessed it...can you?!
CAPERS!!!  ;  )

And then he showed me these...I never knew Poppies grew into these! Lynn told me Zen shouldn't eat lots of Poppies before any physical tests- it'll show up as herioin in his blood stream?! Really?!!

Ahhh and then here I am in my kitchen.
I thought Julie, who visited, was vegetarian- gosh how could I forget, it's her PARTNER ONLY who is! Anyway, I figured out an old recipe I used to make for my kids, but my cookbook is in Japan, MACROBURGERS! And they turned out well enough~ still Julie, the dear, got her meat the next morning for breakfast!
