Cooking time!!

Sweets treatment...

The other day I went to farmer's market with my mum.
We found nice apple for cooking.

I was thinking what to make after that and I came up with one recipe...


Apple crepe cake.


Crepe cake on apple jelly.
(Apple compote and custard are between crepes)

I made this from scratch.
This cake is made by seven layered crepe.
Apple jelly is no artificial colour. This colour is from the apple's skins.
Custard is also handmade.
Natural sweets... Be healthy...

This time no recipe is available... sorry for inconvenience...

New products

Natural treat from LUSH

Lush is my current favourite shop...
The other day I was looked at Lush's website and find something nice...

It's limited product which is the soap. This is called 'Chigurisu gawa no megumi' (Quinquereme of Nineveh/UK).

I also thinking to buy perfume... but not strong one. It is because I want to put it during the work. So I was wondering is there something subtle one.
I found solid one is not so strong and LUSH is natural product shop, so aroma is also natural as well. I bought 'Guruguru Blanket' (The Comforter/UK and AUS)


Soap, perfume and LUSH times (Catalog)

I haven't used soap yet, so I'm not sure what it's like. When current one is finished I will use...
Perfume is very nice. It's very subtle. If I put alot, probably noticeable. However I just use tiny bit, so just smell myself. Or even if it smells, probably like a clothes detergent or soap, so no problem at all even I'm working at restaurant.

It was good shopping.
And once a month for my treat...

Autumn festival at Handa city

Let's take a walk...

I went to Handa city with my parents today.
This time we went to see Higanbana (Lycoris radiata/Red spider lily).
We walked along the river. There were lots of Higanbana and few different kind of flowers.

Matsuba botan (Portulaca grandiflora/Mose rose)
It was a blanket of flowers...


White version of Higanbana
(Usually red, but there was white one as well. It was rare to see.)
