Mother's loving parcel arrived.

Hi, everyone. I am typing this on a dinning chair in my office cum studio. My, so called, executive chair is occupied by Pearl. I accepted my junior position and she rules my office!

This is MY chair.
Today a parcel arrived from Japan. My mother sent me two different green tea and rice crackers. The rice crackers have soy sauce based taste with strong leek flavour. The packet says that they were hand baked with leek sauce. I opened one packet (In Japan humidity is very high, so each cracker is packed individually.) and gave 10% to Mike and ate the rest. We both loved it. I asked Mother to send us more of them!

Green tea and rice crackers
I drink green tea everyday. I always love the taste and fragrance of green tea. But I treat them more or less like medicine, since I read that they are antioxidant. The article I read said that the effect was seen at the back of the eyes of drinkers even 24 hours later. I have tried several pre-packed green tea in UK, but they taste stale to me. So I usually ask anyone visiting us from Japan to bring one or two packets for me. At tea time in the morning, I make a cup of strong green tea. That's my routine.

After dinner, I went back to work. Mike turned his cups those he had thrown over the weekend. We use a kick wheel to turn pots because it is easier to centre them and also it is more therapeutic than a electric wheel. But after a while we get a very tired leg, which we put our weight!

My boss, Pearl, is not pleased to be disturbed whilst sleeping.

    手びねりしかしてないですけど
    思ったように土が動いてくれません。
    土とお友達になるのはもうちょっとかかりそうです(汗)

  2. そうなの。すっかり気に入って、夜もここで寝ようとしちゃうのよ。でも今朝、どうも、くんくん鳴くなと思ったら、椅子か180度回転して、出られなくなっていました。笑

    美味しいのよ!このおせんべい、ねぎのにおいが強烈ですけど。笑

    わーい、陶芸の同士ね!土を触っていると、良性バクテリアで幸せな気持ちになるんですってよ。出来上がった作品をブログに載せてね。楽しみにしています。
