a cooking lesson

I went to my friend home to take a cooking lesson in the morning. She taught her students and me how to cook "marinated asparagus and shrimp with sesame", "burdock, shiitake mushrooms, ginger and deep-fried bean curd rice" and "simmered wings Japanese radish and egg". All of the cooking was healthy and stylish, We took several pictures of them as usual. We enjoyed eating and talking for about 2 hours and a half. I'm looking forward to for the next time.

 

a teddy bear

After supper, I made the face of my homework teddy bear. But I didn't like the nose stitches, so I stitched the nose again. Then I stuffed a lot of cotton into the bear's body, arms and legs with a stick for stuffing. Lastly, I stitched the nails on to the teddy bear.
I finally finished making it, so I took a picture of it.

Gonta

I went to my father's home in the morning. When I reached home, and I took Gonta to an animal clinic to take a vaccine against rabies at once. Because the morning office hours of the clinic is until noon. Gonta really likes the vet and the nurse, so he rushed into the clinic. But he was shaking his body on the examination table all the time. After the vaccine, Gonta was sitting down and he was waiting to get some foods from the nurse. The nurse gave some foods to Gonta with her smile. Then we went back home. I did the housework and I cooked food for Gonta as usual after lunch.

 

My lesson

My student Miyoko came to my home in the afternoon. I gave a lesson on aromatherapy and a herbal lesson for her. I taught her how to make anti-aging oil for the face with some Macadamia nut oil and  2 drops of essential oil this time, too. She chose her 2 kinds od essential oils, and she enjoyed making the anti-aging oil. After the lesson, I served a cup of herbal tea and some sweets to her. We enjoyed talking for a while.

 

My homework

I continued making my homework teddy bear all afternoon. I almost finished making it, but I couldn't concentrate on making it any more. So I'm going to make the face of teddy bear next time.

My homework

I started making the teddy bear of my homework all afternoon. After supper, I continued making it again. I didn't finished making it yet, so I'll continue to make it again tomorrow.

 

My lesson

I gave a lesson on aromatherapy and a hand-sewing lesson in the afternoon. All students of the class were present after a long separation, so the class was very lively. I taught them how to make anti-aging oil for face with some Macadamia nut oil and 2 drops of essential oil. They enjoyed making it all the time. Then I taught them how to sew a stuffed toy dachshund. I was a little complicated to sew, so I'll teach them how to sew it again next time. After the lesson, I served a cup of herbal tea to each student and I served some sweets to them. We enjoyed talking for a while.


   

 

My lesson

My student Naoko and Masae went to my home in the afternoon. I gave a lesson on aromatherapy and a herbal lesson to them. I taught them how to make the herb eye pillows this time, too. They enjoyed choosing their favorite essential oils from my stock. Their herb eye pillows had wonderful aromas, so they liked each of their herb eye pillows. Naoko's pillow's aroma was refreshing, and Masae's pillow's aroma was like a high-grade perfume. Their pillows' aromas were the exact opposite of each other, so I guessed that I was interested in them. After the lesson, I gave them 2 cup of herbal tea and 2 pieces of cake to them. We enjoyed talking, and we had a good time together.

Walking

My husband and I went to Kouenji by bus. We had lunch at a Chinese noodle shop, but the Chinese noodles weren't good. Because the soup of the Chinese noodles was salty. We changed our mind, and we enjoyed window-shopping. There are many kinds of shops in Kouenji. For example, old clothes shops, miscellaneous goods shops, bookshops, used book shops, a tattoo parlor, used CD shops and so on. We were walking and walking in town. We were tired of walking, so we took a rest at a cafe. Then we enjoyed window-shopping again. I found 2 pieces of cloth at an ethnic miscellaneous shop. I thought of making cushion cover with them, so I bought them impulsively. After I went home, I checked my pedometer. It read 14003 steps!
