For a short trip

I collected several brochures for trips.

I was not interested travelling in Asia, but my on-line friend's some pictures enticed me to go to China. However, Japan and China's relationship is so bad right now. Also, I love watching Taiwanese drama series, so I had decided to go to Taiwan. I didn't enough time to go there. I quickly booked a cheap packaged tour.My old suit case was very heavy, so I bought this new one which was much cheaper and lighter than old one. It has a caster stopper, and I love it so much.

Today's harvests

I made jam with these blueberries and rasberries.

Homemade dill pickles

The other day my aunt gave us some baby cucumbers, so I tried to make some dill pickles. I made them with S&B company's pickling spice and Mitsukan sushi vinegar.

I bought this ceramic container on the net.It was super cheap, and bigger than I had expected.I love it so much.

The taste was so-so. I bought two different dill pickles, and tasted them. I think I should add some more sugar next time.

First fresh jalapeno pepper

This is a first fresh jalapeno pepper which I grew and got.

I made this pizza with the jalapeno pepper.

It turned out so-so.

Black currant

I bought this black currant plant two years?(last year?) ago. I got a few berries last year, but this year I got a lot more berries. Those were more sour than I had expected. Anyway, I made some black berry sauce with them. It was good.
