Lazy Day

In America many people work very hard from Monday to Friday. Often they are very tired at the end of the week. Commonly people will have a lazy day on Saturday.

They might sleep in late; get up for brunch at a local restaurant; and go to a park. They might watch TV shows. It is considered a way to refresh.

My Saturday is rarely a lazy day. I study Japanese calligraphy on Saturday’s. My class is in a different city so I have to get up and ride a train. I really enjoy studying calligraphy, but sometimes I want a lazy day on Saturday.

Do you have busy Saturdays or lazy Saturdays?

American Food

Friday night I cooked chili. I used ground beef from Matsusaka. The kidney beans and tomato sauce came from Italy. Spices were pre-packaged in America. I wanted to add cinnamon, but I didn’t have any. I served it with cheddar cheese from New Zealand. All of the ingredients were a little expensive.

I served it with a yosedofu salad. The salad had mizuna in it. The dressing was aojiso.

For dessert, I had strawberries, chocolates, and maple cookies.

Saturday I made brunch. I whipped milk into eggs to make fluffy scrambled eggs. I cut up tomatoes and cucumbers to eat with tofu. Also, there was marmalade and toast.
