Magpies!

I often see five of them squeaking each other. "They must be a family", my husband said.

Some of them dare to come to our simple water spot. Hooray!

These are "Yellow Gracier-Lily", also called "Snow-Lily".

These flowers reminded me "katakuri", which is named as "erythronium japonicum" in Latin. It has a purple flower instead of yellow. I found it every year in the forest behind our home, and felt that the early spring was there.

People used to got starch from its bulb, and this starch was called "katakuri-ko", which is replaced with potato starch today. But the name "katakuri-ko" is still used unchanged to call starch.]]> http://www.webkammer.net/en/2010/05/2010-05-08.html http://www.webkammer.net/en/2010/05/2010-05-08.html OUTDOOR...

waiting for going away...

The brown ones are ginger cookies. I used molasses for the first time. The taste is ok, but I think I could improve a little to match my taste. Sugar cookies are just fine. I'm so thankful to my mother-in-law for the recipe!
