Family Game, Finally Started! and My Favorite Dish!

One of Japanese TV Drama  finally started tonight, but I didn't see yet. However, I am sure this drama will show that some part of what education in Japan and other part of Japanese society. Well, I am excited to see this later. I need to do other things first then I will watch that video. I like to watch on time, but I don't think I can do that unless I watch through internet or so on. Well, I will try to do a lot of things a day, but I am sure that makes my life is fun. Today, actually I wanted to write for what kind of food I like to eat. Since I made my favorite dish and meal today's lunch. I was not sure what to write before I start this, but for my title you can see one is that drama but another is my favorite dish.
(やっと今夜待ちに待った日本のドラマが始まります。しかし、それをその時間に見る事はできないとは思うのですが。。。しなしながら、このドラマは今の日本の教育や社会の事を反映して作られるのではないかと思います。昔のドラマ版や映画からすれば今の状況や社会情勢が変わっているのでは脚本もそれに応じて変わっているのではと憶測ができます。後で見る楽しみが一つ増えました。まぁ最初に自分のやらなくてはならない事をやってからそれを見るようにしようかと思っています。感想も後ほど(明日以降)に書こうかなぁ？なんちゃって。いろいろと多くの事をやるということは自分の人生が楽しめているという事でもありますね。一日でできる事をやるという事にもなります。それと今日はもう一つ自分のお気に入りの料理についてです。実際、昼食に作ったものがお気に入りだったという事もあるのですが、まぁそれはさておきまずはお気に入りの料理を載せますね。)

Well, here is my favorite dish.

One of My favorite food
Rice and Tune Taraki
Use: Fire King Azurite Swirl Dish

This is one of my favorite food meal, and you an make this quickly when you don't have much time for spending cooking for lunch or dinner. Tuna Tataki is a good taste and less salt to make. Also, you don't need to use a lot of oil too. Oh yea, you can see that healthy than other meat dishes. For dishes, I use Fire King Azurite Swirl lunch plate and Fire King Azurite Chili Bow. Those are my favorite color dish for Fire King series. I am trying to think that how many dishes I have right now.... lol
(これはお気に入りの料理の１つです。しかも、手軽に簡単に作れるので、時間があまりない時などにはもってこいの１品だと思っています。ご飯は炊飯ジャーで炊くので自分で作るわけではないのですが、マグロのタタキは少ない油で軽く周りを炒めて切るだけ。これは本当に簡単な１品です。それに健康の面においても低カロリーで野菜も取れば効果的ですね。まぁに良い所ばっかりですかね。今回使用した食器はファイヤーキングのアズライト・スワールのランチプレートとリチボールです。この色はファイヤーキングの中でもお気に入りのものです。)

I hope everyone will have a good good day!!!!

WARM!

It was a warm day after all, and I can not believe that it was really cold yesterday and Monday. Well, it is a good day to have a nice weather for me, because I could have a good play time with my dogs. Also, it is a good day for me to have little bit rest time. I was having a good time, and had energy left to make a good dinner tonight. I just didn't think that I was having a good time with my dog that long... and I recognized that I need to make some dinner when I looked at my watch. So I started to make some dinner foods! Tonight dinner menu was Chopped Fried Chicken, Kimuchi, Fried Vegetable, Soup, Rice and Salad. Also, I use the Fire King Swirl Azurite.
(昨日とうって変わり今日はとても温かい1日になりました。思っていた以上に温かくそとでゆっくりとすごせる1日となりました。そこで午後からゆっくり出来ることを利用して犬と外で遊んだりしました。これで犬もストレス解消になるのかと思います。本当に今日はよい一日をすごしました。そして犬と遊んでいる間にいつの間にか夕食を準備しなくてはいけない時間になりました。部屋にある時計をみてもうこんな時間だ！と思って早速夕食の準備に取り掛かりました。今夜の夕食のメニューは角切り鶏肉の煮込み、キムチ（自家製）、野菜炒め、スープ、ご飯とサラダという感じになりました。今回使用した食器はファイヤーキングのアズライトです。)

ディナー

this is my side

 It is a nice dinner after all, and looks like a good dinner too! I wasn't sure how to think that I did.... lol ahaha

Well, hope everyone will have a good Thursday!!!!

FELT TIRED (>.<)

Actually, today is the middle of the week day for a week, and usually I have a good day and spend time for several things what I am going to do. HOWEVER, today I felt like I am really really really tired and not sure why it is..... Also, when I came home around 6pm, then I did something then I just straight went to bed until 10pm.  I was tired and didn't want to move or do anything, and I am not sure why that way I am today. Well, sometime that happen, and I can not be all the time 100% full energy for all day long. I guess that was happen to me.  After I woke up 10pm, I start making some dinner, and I made small things.

(今日は1週間のちょうど真ん中の日で、いつもは自分のやることを自由に出来る日なのですが、なぜか今日は疲れていて一日中なにをやってもうやる気がおきませんでした。夕方6時ごろに自分の家に戻ってきたのですが、ちょっとパソコンなどをやっていてそれから横になったら午後10時まで爆睡してしました。なぜ疲れていたのかはわからないのですが、時たまこのようなことがあるのはおかしいことではないのかもしれません。人間いつも１００％とは行かないものだと思います。今日がその日だったのかもしれません。午後10時におきてから夕食の準備をして食べました。)

This is my dinner table

I made spaghetti with some taste of salmon, and pork with vegetable, and salad. I use the Fire King Azurite Swirl dishes which is my favorite one.
(今日はカツオで味付けをしたスパゲッティー、豚肉の炒め物、そしてサラダになりました。今夜使った食器はファイヤーキングのスワールアズライトです。一番気に入っているものです。)

I hope everyone had a great day!

WARM DAY

It was a warm day today too and a nice day again. I thought it is a February, and supposed to be winter here in the US and this area.... However, I don't think I feel like I am in winter season..... Because around me a lot of people were wearing short T-shirt, and it looks like summer to me. I guess it could be stay like this now? I hope that is not really happen here. Also, yeah why not not look like winter now.
(今日も何故か温かくて陽気のよい一日になりました。今本当に2月なのかと聞きたくなるくらいの温かい陽気に包まれています。何故か冬なのに夏みたい？と思ってしまいます。どうしてかというと周りの人たちが半そで！なんです！そりゃ冬にはみえませんね。)

Then I was out of my apartment for all day long, and I finally came home around 5pm. I wanted to rest little bit, but I didn't have enough time for rest because I want to make a good dinner gain since I have some left for making a good dinner again. I use again Salmon, made some seaweed soup with carrot,Onigiri, and salad for dinner table. However, I will wait to eat those with my roommate which will be better than just eat alone. ahaha. Tonight dinner, I use Fire King Swirl Sunrise, which is a ivory color with red round color for edges. I like this one because table looks like colorful and a nice decorations... lol :P
(まぁ、話は変わりますが、今日は1日中家からでて勉強やいろいろなことをやっていて帰ってきたのは夕方の午後5時でした。ちょっと休んでと思っていたのですが、その時間もなくすぐに夕食の準備にかかりました。なぜかというと、まだいろいろな材料が残っていておいしい料理が作れそうな気がしてわくわくしていたからです。今日のメニューは焼き鮭、わかめスープ、おにぎり、とサラダという感じになりました。でも、作ってすぐに食べるということではないんです。1人で食べるのがいやという感じで。。。。アハハ自分勝手だな。ルームメイトが帰ってくるまでゆっくり待つことにしました。それはともかく今夜の夕食に並んでいるのはファイヤーキングのスワールサンライズというものです。この食器はアイボリーカラーに赤く周りを塗ってあり太陽が昇ってきたかのような印象を受けます。夕食のテーブルもカラフルに見えてデコレーションしたのか？と思ってしまいます。)

here is the pictures

Dinner!!!
Fire King Swirl Sunrise

I am going to eat dinner soon!!!!
(夕食はもうすぐ食べると思います。)

I hope that everyone has a great time for what you were doing now and rest of the day!
(皆さんがよい一日と夜をすごせることを祈ってます！)

It's February!!!

It's already in February now! I had a good day today and having a nice warm weather same time. I went to another town after I finish school, and I was having a great time with one Junior High School classroom. I just went to help students and teachers for some technological stuff, and talked to them what's going on. Also, next week on Wednesday, I need to go back there and help them to make using some internet website and teach them how to use it as well. I think this is a good opportunity for me to work somewhere like that and improve my teaching skill for myself. Then I went to shopping for some food and bought several things for dinner. I made Salmon main and soup and so on. It's better than last night. This time, I use for Fire King Swirl Azurite. It is a nice set of dish to use for dinner, and that color makes dinner table brighter. :D
(もうすでに2月になりました！今日は何故かとてもいい一日になりました。温かかったのもありますが、いつもに比べて楽しい一日になりました。大学でいろいろなことが終わった後でほかの町に行きそこの中学校の先生と生徒にテクノロジー関係の設備や使い方の講義をしたり、どう使えばいいのかなどを教えたりしました。これはすごくいい経験になると思います。それに自分が人にものを教えるということに関してどうやればいいのかなどいろいろなことが経験できるからです。そして、先生からのリクエストで来週の水曜日にまた伺って今度はウェブサイトの事などに関しての講義をすることになりました。かなり楽しいと思っています。自分も人の役に立つのだという自分を少しだけ持ちました。その後、帰ってくる前に夕食の準備のために買い物をして帰ってきました。今日の夕食はシャケをメインにスープやほかのものでいろいろと考えて作りました。今回使用した食器はファイヤーキングのスワールアズライトというものです。このお皿のセットはとても色合いがよくテーブルが鮮やかに見えます。)

here is the picture of dinner~!

This is my side of dinner table...

This is whole dinner table.

I had a good time making some dinner today, and I was thinking a lot of things... Well, I have some left over for my dinner which will be tomorrow's my lunch... lol. I hope everyone had a good day!
(これを作っているときにとても楽しくてかなりいろいろなものを準備してしました。時間はかかりましたが、どうにかちょっと豪華な感じで作れてよかった気がします。)

HUH....

I have some exam coming this week, and having some more things going on. I just having a lot of this.

I just need to study for several days to prepare for Exam, but still same time I have an Assignment needs to do.

Today actually I got some thing.

here is the picture.

Fire King Pink Swirl Fruit Dishes

 I order this one long time ago, and I was forgot about it when I get it. I was surprised about this.

Well, it is good to have something like this.

Fall Back

Today is last day of summer time in this year 2011. Tomorrow will start normal time as everyone else do. Also, that means we will have winter soon! It makes myself little bit sad, because I want to have some kind of Fall feeling... It's already way too cold in here and feels like already winter! Where is the Fall goes?
(今日はサマータイム最後の一日です。そして明日からは普通の時間にもどります。これが意味するのはただ単に普通の時間にもどるという事ですが。。。でも、さらに意味してるのはもう冬がきた！ということでしょうか。そう考えると少し寂しい感じかします。なぜなら秋はどこへいった？という感じになってしまうからです。ここら辺はもう寒さが身にしみるような感じになってきています。)

oh yeah, today I met with my friend who is in Durham, NC. I wanted to stay in there little bit longer, but I had an appointment that is going to movie... so I have to leave there around 4pm... Well, I will see him again during Thanksgiving week. I believe. So I am sure I will have a good time that week!

Here is some picture

Coffee with Fire King Swirl Azurite

Cheese Cake with Passion Tea

This is just my coffee time in the morning and desert time after my dinner.

Working at Night...

It's a good time me to working on night time, because the night time is quite around here, and outside nothing going on! I am trying to finish all my work as much as I can for today. So I don't have to do a lot of things tomorrow for last minutes to finish all.
(夜は勉強や仕事をするのに最高です。なぜならすごく静かで落ち着いてできるからです。それに外も忙しい様子もなく自分のことに集中できるからです。それに！明日まで残しておいてやるよりは今日やってしまって明日少なくできる様にと考えたりも。。。)

oh yeah, I bought some stuff today, and use fire king for display! lol

here is the picture!

Fire King Swirl Azurite
with Salted Caramel frapuccino

Salted Caramel Frapuccino

doughnuts

I ate doughnuts which came from Krispy Kream, and Salted Caramel Frapuccino came from Starbucks. It was so good to eat and drink for those what I got! But after that I don't even wanna eat dinner at all... Not good for health! lol :P

(クリスーピークリームのドーナッツとスターバックスのソルトキャラメルフラペチーノです。とってもおいしくいただきました。でも、これらを食べた後で夕食はさすがに食べれませんでした。アハハ。健康に悪いですね。)

Fire King Azurite lunch

Today, I made really simple lunch and use Fire King Azurite Swirl one. It was good to use it and I really like to see and make myself to have some good feeling for everything.

(今日の昼食はすごくシンプルでした。そして、ファイヤーキングのアズライトを使ってみました。いつも使うと笑顔が。。。そしていい気分で食事ができます。)

Also, I am trying to do some stuff done today  and tomorrow night, but I am not sure how it goes... Well, I am sure I will be ok for all of this.

(それから、今日のよると明日の夜でやらなくてはならない物があるので。。。まぁできると思うのですが。。)

OH yeah here is the picture

Just Simple Lunch

My lunch is really really simple... lol I made rice and miso soup... Only that... ahaha

Well, it is really nice to have some Fire King Dishes and stuff... I am so happy to see and use everyday of my life.

Hopefully, it wil be a better things to use next time!

my house kitchen cabinet!

I just took my kitchen cabinet today after I looked at again all of them... I was happy to see a lot of things... lol 

Well, this would good way to see and take pictures for myself, so I can make copy of them.
(今日は久しぶりにキッチンの戸棚を見渡して見ました。そしてとても嬉しくなったんですが、置く場所が。。。まぁ、写真を撮ったりする事は記念になりますし、自分が何をもっているかということの確認にもなります。)

I just don't think about it long time how much I have... Also how much space I don't have any more... lol I can not put some stuff in there now... lol
(ただ単に自分がどれだけもっているのかという事を考えた事がありませんでした。それにスペースが。。。なくなってきている事も今気がつきました。。。どうしよう！)

Here it is...

Fire King, Pyrex, and Federal

I have Fire King's Mugs and Cups a lot on this cabinet, and I have 2 sets of Federal Snack Set and Fire King Primrose Snack Sets there. I usually use Snack Sets for eating cake with Passion Tea. ahaha I think mugs are around 50 of them in that cabinet, and I use it with coffee when I drink... but usually I like to drink several time a day so I use a lot of them...

(ここにはファイヤーキングのマグとカップ、それからフェデラルの４個１組のスナックセットが２つ、そしてファイヤーキングのプライムローズのスナックセットがおいてあります。それから、マグに関してはたぶん大体５０個ほどあります。でも、１日で何回もコーヒーを飲むのでいつも何個も使っています。)

90% is Fire King and 10% is Pyrex

Here has my favorite Fire King Colors! My favorite colors of Fire King are  Azurite and Turquoise Blue which are all third low which is very last ones. Also, I am glad to have all of them what I have right now. I just like to use this ones more than other Fire King Series some reason! But it is really nice to use it when I make dinner.
(ここには自分のお気に入りの色があります。それはファイヤーキングのアズライトとターコイズブルーです。この２色はとてもいい色をしていて食卓にならべる料理を引き立ててくれます。これらをもっている事はすごく幸せだなって感じています。)

Fire King and Pyrex 

Fire King, Pyrex, and Cornell  

Fire King Cups and Saucers and some mugs

This is what I have all of then right now, but please don't thin I use huge money to buy all... I don't use expensive ones to buy!
I usually buy less expensive ones, so I can get a lot of them as I like.
(これらは自分が今もっている物のほとんどです。でも、これらがすごく高くてお金をいっぱい使ったとかという事はないです。安いものでいっぱい手に入る時に買っています。それに高い物は買う事ができません。いつも安い物を見つけてはいろいろといっぱい買う様にしています。)

Well hope you will enjoy looking at this one!

土曜日(Saturday)

TOday start October!
(今日から１０月が始まりました。)

Today is the Saturday, and I don't think I have much stuff to do right now... lol
(今日は土曜日です。そしてたぶんあまり何かやる事がいっぱいというわけではないです。)

But I am going to study for my exam anyway... lol Also, I will update my blog later again about 1960's Fire-King.... ahaha
(しかし、試験勉強をしないと行けないと思っています。それから、後で１９６０年代のファイヤーキングについてブログにアップする予定にしています。)

I like to think about what I am going to make lunch and dinner everyday after I collect and have Fire King and some of my favorite things! I am so lucky to have this kind of things. I just have a lot of things for my special things and good thought. I just really like that what I have now!
(今の楽しみは昼食と夕食を何にするかという事を考える事ですが、それもこれもファイヤーキングが集まってきてから作る楽しみが増えてきました。それにお気に入りの物もあります。これはとてもラッキーな事だと思っています。それに特別な事やいいアイデアなどにも貢献しています。今もっている物がとても大好きです。)

All that begins only one item which is Fire-King Swirl Cup and Saucer, and if I didn't bought that one. I don't think I have all Fire-King collections what I have right now! :) BUT I have use the Fire-King for 6 years before I bought one, and I even didn't know before what I was using it! ahaha
(全ての始まりはたった一個のファイヤーキングから始まっています。それはファイヤーキングのスワイルのアズライトのコップとソサーから始まっています。それがなければファイヤーキングを集めるきっかけになっていなかったと思っていますが、でも実際には６年もの間ファイヤーキングを使っていたというのもあります！知らないで！)

That makes me little bit sad after all what I have now is not there... That makes me really sad and even that won't happen anymore anyway... :)
(でも、もしその１つがなかったらと考えると少し寂しささえ感じてしまいます。それがなくては今のファイヤーキングがないそれはとても考えられないのです。)

Here is the fist one I bought

Fire King Azurite Swirl cup and saucer
bought on September 25th, 2010
