Can you guess why I am listing up so many adjectives ?
I am looking for the most suitable word to describe what I saw this morning.
All seem to be too ordinary to me.
Maybe I should say “Beyond my description”?
You may be wondering what on earth I want to describe about.
How could I expect that I would see the most beautiful autumn leaves this fall as we have been having much warmer autumn compared with normal years, and it is said the leaves turn more vivid beautiful colors when the morning temperature is low.
It was a surprise for me, of course a happy surprise.
The mist was rising from the lake !
The sun was shining on the leaves.
The morning dew was glittering on the edges of the leaves.
It was a mystical scene !!
(Unfortunately, the photos are not really showing what I saw with my eyes.)
I wanted to melt into this world.
After staying there for a while, I made a move to the mountain, where I enjoyed the other scenery of the autumn foliage.
When I was back home, I straight away started cooking as I found myself hungry.
I watched the clock, and realized I spent so much time on my morning walk.
The pumpkin that I bought lately was so tasty, so I steamed it with a hint of salt, and then ate it up.
I often like to eat the pumpkin in this way when it is sweet and tasty.
When I want to prepare it for somebody else or put it in the bento box, I shape it into “Chakin”, which is the ball shape with some creases on the surface.
I should share this recipe with you today.
Anybody can make it as it is so simple to prepare !
