I got a shock this morning when I was making the beds and a lizard appeared! Luckily it was only a toy!

Autumn has turned the leaves from green to yellow and some will turn to red, making such pretty colors!

Max is walking the dog today. The same course as usual, but the Autumn leaves make it feel different.
#CookingMama
I smelt the scent of Osmanthus flowers at the back of the garden today. Could they be blossoming?
#CookingMama
I saw the birds eating Japanese persimmon this morning. I hope they can find enough food during the winter.🍂🍂
#CookingMama
New rice arrived from my parent's house! Freshly cooked new rice is the best you can get! 🍙🍙🍙
#CookingMama
What reminds you of Autumn? For Mama it's food such as saury, matsutake mushrooms, Japanese persimmon.

Today we collected chestnuts from a local field and will make chestnut rice later! Got to be careful not to cut yourself when taking off the hard shell!

I noticed a hole in Ringo's shoes when I was washing them! They're still wearable so I'll patch them up!
#CookingMama
It's getting cooler these days as the seasons change. Watch out for sudden changes in the weather!
#CookingMama
The mornings and nights are feeling chilly. I can hear the sound of crickets in the garden too. Ringo tried to capture some crickets with a net but Ichigo stopped him!
#CookingMama
I found a spider as big as a child's hand in the washing. I carefully put it back in the garden!
#CookingMama
It's cooler now at the end of September so I think I'll take Max on a longer walk today.
#CookingMama
The best feeling is when after making dinner someone tells you the food was delicious!
#CookingMama
I wonder if the swallow I heard in the garden in July has left the nest and flown south yet.
#CookingMama
Autumn is drawing in. I'm sad to see summer go, but there's a lot to look forward to in fall!

Beautiful, clear crisp, weather today. The clouds are really high in the sky! Autumn is here.
#CookingMama
Mornings are cooler these days. Kids are back into their school routine and the mornings are busy again!
#CookingMama
I had to run after Ichigo after she forgot something for school. I just made it, but it left me sweating! If only I had realized earlier!
#CookingMama
If you go shopping when you're hungry you tend to buy more food than you need! #CookingMama
