A begetable shop

(Private collection) |
At the traditional okinawan grocery store,there
sold "boiled fish paste"daily.
A roaf of those fish paste are just
like
meat roaf.
Okinawan styled roaf is a little bit
different
from the mainlands styled ones.
Okinawan fish paste roaf is very heavy
and
sometimes it's surface is artificially
colored
with "fire red".
Regendly, red fish paste foaf is use
for
the celebrations.
After the ce;ebrations or festivals,
red
fish paste is ordinaly cutted and used
for
the material of cooking,and almost
all the
people cut off the colored part for
their
health.
Neverthless,we would love this heavy
colored
food forever and nothing would be replaced
with this "fire red". |

The days in Fall & Winter are the best
for camping in Okinawa.
The sunshine is very mild with the
gentle
breeze.No daubt,this is the best season
for
sports, read the books,and cook out
door.
Everything we cook is delicious
and
the night time is also enjoyable with
the
special feasts and various kind of
spirits.
Wine,beer and awamori.
Next morning,we may get up late and
enjoy
to cook the special rice gruel with
fresh
herb.
How wonderful holiday..
We could easily charge the energy in
this
way.

Pizza shop

As everybody says,one of the NYC's best is
PIZZA.I always want rushing to pizza
stand
immediately when I arrive at JFK airport.
PIZZA is not only a snack. If we choose
vegetables
and meats perfectly on the top,PIZZA
worth
to be tha great meal with fresh juice
or
soup.
I also like to cook PIZZA myself.Taste
is
so so,but it's very enjoyable choosing
ingredients
which I like.Here in Okinawa,everyday
is
sultry so it is easy to does ferment.
I'm gonna feel like cook PIZZA,and
eat
it! |

In the Evening

When I was a child, there lived the old lady
who had collected a lot of antique
bisque
dolls in my neighborhood.I sometimes
visited
her house and always attacted with
the room
filled with bieautiful dolls and the
smell
of silk satin they were wearing.
One day,I found a "clown"doll
within
them.His face was very funny,but his
eyes
looked contain lonliness.
Suddenly,I felt that I couldn't stay
in the
room anymore and went back home.
At the door,the lady gave me a box
of candies.
I said"thank you" to the
lady and
forgot the eyes of "clown"doll
because of the hapiness holding the
beautiful
candy box. |

A seasonal rainfront is now on Okinawa,but
it seems no rain at all.Water shortage
may
be worried..
Anyway,joyful summer season will be
coming
soon.Day time is getting longer,people feel
like drink through the nights in such
a enjoyable
season.
Although, we have to take care of our
health
for living long,don't we?
We could enjoy one beer with beautiful
sun
sets,Stop drinking so long and go back
home
early.We're sure this is the best way
and
the secret of longevity. |

An emergency ladder
acrylic on canvas
27‡p~22‡p
(Private collection) |
We can find the old,black iron worked emergency
ladders and fence set on the buildings'window
around Manhattan,NYC.
There are so many movies using those
ladders
as the effective tools.Man sometimes
propose
to the woman over the iron fence.Or
in the action movie,the man chased
by somebody
often run away using those ladders.
Sometimes,unfortunately,the man hold
the
broken bar of the ladder,fall toward
the
grownd on the movie.
In my usual hotel in Manhattan, the
room
is facing the beauriful courtyard.There
is
a old landing and the ladder outside
of the
hotel room window.
I can view the flowers and trees over
the
fence.It's very romantic..
Anyway,nobody come up the ladders for
proposing
me at all,as you know. |
