Traditional Jewish Chinese Christmas Dinner

 Dim Sum from Dunhuang, Yokohama and take out from Panda Express for dinner. We don't really celebrate Christmas though we always have Chinese food for dinner as papa's strong request. I just steamed frozen dim sum from the restaurant and fried pot stickers, which were mostly eaten by the little guys. Panda Express, chunks of leak, crunchy broccoli, sweet fried chicken, THE American Chinese food you can eat at the food court on the West Coast. This food makes papa a bit nostalgic, and he has cravings for it from time to time. So he set his mind to have this for Christmas dinner this year. As soon as today ends, everything will be rushed to the New Year in Japan which is amazing how fast they can switch. I've seen Valentine's PRs already, I can't really catch up though...

Have a happy holiday, friends!

四川料理 敦煌さんの飲茶とパンダエクスプレスのファミリーセットでクリスマスディナー。うちではクリスマスは特にお祝いしないのですが、パパの強い希望で、毎年中華です。敦煌さんの飲茶は冷凍のものを予め購入しておいたので、蒸し器で温め、餃子を焼いて、小さい人達がメインに頂きました。パンダエクスプレスは、ぶった切りのネギ、ガリガリのブロッコリー、甘いソースの掛かった唐揚げ、西海岸のフードコートで食べる、まさしくアメリカンな中華。これが郷愁を誘うらしく、時々パパは強烈に食べたくなるそうなので、今年のクリスマスはこれにすると早いうちから決めていたようです。日付が変われば全てがお正月模様に変わるはず。すでにヴァレンタインの広告も出ていて、もう付いていけません‥‥

Cherry blossom sighting at Aoyama Cemetery

Walking around Aoyama Cemetery. It's surreal that cherry blossoms are falling and covering graveyards, and its beauty, ephemeral,  tranquility, everything I don't have enough words to express. And there were white dandelions on the ground. It's very unusual in east Japan. It made me happy to see a couple of flower petals on the loaf of bread I bought before the walk.   青山墓地で花見。 散りゆく桜の花びらが古いお墓に降り積もるのはなんともシュール で、美しさ、儚さと、静かさと、何とも言えず、非日常的。 そんな中、足元には白いタンポポ。東日本では珍しい。 家に帰って見たら、 お散歩前に買ったパンに花びらが付いていたのが何だか嬉しい。 Ships at a graveyard Old Christianity graveyard 白いタンポポ White dandelion Cherry blossom tunnel Cherry blossom petals on a graveyard Flower petals on a loaf of bread Videos of cherry blossom falling , cherry blossom falling like snow , and the last one .

Bus rider back home

Overheard a conversation between two senior ladies on the bus way back to home from work. One lady said she was worried about her daughter not getting married. "I was worried about her going out when she was young, and was careful not to let her go on date with some boys, but now I regret what I did. If she had more chances of meeting, she would've been married by now." The other lady was telling her that she was embarrassed by her daughter married to a man not from the good family. "Children of my brothers and cousins all married to the people from the good family. My daughter is the only one not married to such a good family. Even my husband's end relatives also married to decent family. I'm so embarrassed." The grass is greener on the other side of the fence. One is not happy about her daughter being single. One is not happy that her daughter doesn't belong to decent family that she can claim to her relatives. Probably both of them were trying to ...
