3月20日(水曜日)2024

    春分の日。天気が悪いと予報で知っていたけど、まさか霙(みぞれ)混じりの雨とは。軒から出るので躊躇しつつも旗日なので取り敢えず国旗を掲揚。その後、雨は止んで一安心。

    お彼岸の時期。ずっと行けていない実家の墓掃除が気になりながら両家の両親とご先祖様に心の中で手を合わせています。

    ところで、先日撮影に失敗した烏骨鶏(ウコッケイ)の卵、翌日、もう一個を割って今度は成功!こんもり盛り上がった美しい卵にしばし見とれました。この貴重で高価な卵はホカホカご飯に乗せて醤油をちょっと垂らして卵かけご飯となりました。勿論、お・い・し・かっ・た!

    It is Vernal Equinox Day. I was expecting it to be a rainy day by weather forecast, but when I looked outside, it was sleeting which mede me surprised. In the calendar, it was the beginning of Spring and celebration day, so I set the national flag in front of my house anyhow. The rain stopped after a while.

    During this season, Japanese people usually visit ancestors' graves, but I had to give up doing so because of the bad weather.

    As for the silky fowl, I tried to break the other one and it worked this time. The york rose up and it was beautiful. Well, I decided to eat this valuable expensive egg raw on hot rice with drops of soy sauce.
We call it "Tamago-kake gohan" and it is a popular way of eating fresh eggs in Japan. It was so good!
