Raw Corn

I ate raw corn for the first time.

It is called 'fruit corn'.


It go on the market for several years.


I can bite easily even raw because the surface is soft.
It was sweet and was delicious.
Its sugar content is high even if I do not boil it.


It is not genetic modification.

a Single Flower

I live in the apartment, and I haven't my own garden.

Therefore I go to the neighborhood flower shop every week and buy a little flower.
and I decorate the room with flowers.


Beside TV.


White Kikyo by Japanese means 'Balloon flower' 

It is only a single flower,
but feels that a room  became the freshness and beauty very much.
