Originally French Bistro recipe.
(I used to work for a Creprie in Amemura in 90s. It’s a sister Creprie et cafe of the oldest Bistro in Osaka. Bistro opened in 70s (more than 50 years…no creprie anymore) is still in Namba near Dotonbori river)

Chicken (as much as You want to eat!) with bit of plain flour, salt and pepper!
A
1/2 carrot (sliced)
1/2 onion (sliced)
3 mushrooms (do you want more?)
Apple (1/8? Just a bit! It’s my original part!)
Cherry Tomatoes (3! Instead of Italian tomato paste, again my original. If you only find normal sized tomatoes?…1/4?)
1 clove garlic (Crush the garlic with a knife)
1/2 bay leaf (if for 4ppl 1 is enough:)!)
1 whole Black peppercorn
Olive oil 30-45ml

−
Marinate chicken and vegetables A, black pepper and bay leaf in Burgundy red wine for 8-12 hours.
Drain the chicken (paper towel dry!) and coat with plain flour, salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a frying pan and cook the chicken till it becomes golden brown, starting with the skin side down. Remove the chicken from the pan.
Add the carrot, onion, garlic, and mushrooms to the same pan in that order and sauté.
Return the chicken to the pan and flambé with Cognac.
Add the red wine, bay leaf, cherry tomatoes, and apples.

(If you don’t have pressure cooker) Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes.

Coq???
Best hunting grounds for older birds are traditional butchers, farmers’ markets and mail order. With their access to fresh air, free-range birds have had the opportunity to build stronger, thicker bones than anything kept indoors, and will make a more sumptuous sauce.

The photo I was thinking of was stolen so I found something different! Fake Polaroid of Glustonbury Tor sunrise 2002 (instax? No! There’s no instax in Somerset 2002! It’s FAKE :(! Someone stole real one and just left fake!)
No instax in Somerset
I didn’t go Glasto fes, instead We (me and my future husband) climbed up to Tor and waited for the sunrise!
It was a beautiful gathering, I didn’t know if there were so many people around. (We climbed in the dark!) People were waiting for the special sunrise from the Tor…! It’s another once in a life time experience! Someone just gave the Polaroid to me…:) BLACK SUN.
The one I wanted to send was… Me smiling in front of child chest with a giraffe on it with lot of stickers! I was wearing red summer dress but don’t remember who I was smiling at…(Mom? Papa?)
None can damage my beautiful memory! (Ppl can steal my real prints or photos but…)
Can you see the elephant?
Can you see the bird on a stick?

I read my Queations to Alec again and read his answers again…
(I forgot but ) I was writing
“I received a letter from you, but still I don’t know much about you!…so tell me about You!”
Now I know your birthday :) haha!
I was watching full moon rising in the dessert when you were 33:)!
This is the day I found out WHY:)!
I’ll ask him about 22 August sometime…:)
an illusion
He said but…anyway We live in illusions? (or I should say “THEY” want us to live in “an” illusion?)
“I realised everything is connected” Alec said.
hippy-dippy :)
“this sudden realisation that everything in the universe was connected”
I do have this kind of “sudden realisation”, but I don’t know if it’s the moment I press the shutter button or…
I knew so I press the button I guess, so I don’t really think about things sometimes in the nature.
So… Sudden realisation kind of moment?
I try to recall but…
Ah
so he dosen’t know why he lives on planet earth… but he knew “that kind of sudden realisation”… I wonder why coz it’s kind of all connected!
If he knows it, why he dosen’t know that?
Maybe I can ask Alec sometime :)!
Now I know he never been to Osaka! (But he knows Black rain kind of Osaka:)! Yakuza!)
Prince and his childhood home…(I’ll google it later…
To know somebody and letter writing!
Before receiving his reply letter, I was thinking it might be difficult to find Japanese movie in Minnesota but he could :) (Black Rain! I guess I didn’t know how to explain my City Osaka when I was a high school student…)
Kobo Abe, I only read “The Box Man” 箱男 when I was a high school student.
About Basho, I cited (Magico Mexico) coz Rebecca and Alex Webb introduced his book (I knew famous opening line, but never read full! I’ll try sometime!)
The Mississippi is imaginary thing for him as well? ( Ah I want to have raft ride like Huckleberry Finn but…:()
It exists only in “OUR” imagination!
I love Ise shrine! I want to go again sometime, if Alec is interested, We can visit Ise shrine (and Futami Okitama shrine!) for winter solstice or I want “perfect sunrise picture!” …(2 times? It was sunny! Could see Mt.Fuji!)
I know he prob can’t read Japanese(can’t use auto translate if it’s written on a paper? Or scanned paper???) …but sorry I didn’t want to write all in English (some part, I didn’t write in English ごめんなさい！)
I just read Dylan’s word and I was thinking sometimes I feel not as fresh as in my 20s( I never saw this?)…
But! I can go! I can do!
Something new experiences.
(I never thought if I travel with Alec like this? Newfoundland!?)
Good to live!(…so tough at the moment tho..:( )
If I live in a different place (not Kitahorie 4 Dolce!), I guess I would recover sooner…!

Historical Links: According to traditions and localized folklore in England, Avalon is frequently asso. In the late 12th century, monks at Glastonbury claimed to have discovered the graves of Arthur and his queen,
Magical Ties: Prior to his final rest, the island is also occasionally cited as the place where Excalibur was forged.
a place of magic where King Arthur‘s sword Excalibur was made and later where Arthur was taken to recover from being gravely wounded at the Battle of Camlann.
Avalon has often been identified as the former island of Glastonbury Tor.

An early and long-standing belief involves the purported discovery of Arthur’s remains and their later grand reburial, in accordance with the medieval English tradition in which Arthur did not survive the fatal injuries he suffered in his final battle. Besides Glastonbury, several other alternative locations of Avalon have also been claimed or proposed. Many medieval sources also localized the place in Sicily, and European folklore connected it with the phenomenon of Fata Morgana.
UK’s St. Michael Ley Line and its mystical connection to Avalon. In Arthurian legend,
Avalon is the mythical island where King Arthur was taken to heal. . In occult and Earth-energy traditions, Glastonbury (the spiritual heart of the ley line) is widely equated with ancient Avalon. [1, 2, 3]
The St. Michael Ley Line (often called the Michael and Mary Line) is a purported “dragon” energy line running roughly 350 miles across southern England. [1, 2]
フレンチ・インディアン戦争（フレンチ・インディアンせんそう、英: French and Indian War、仏: Guerre de la Conquête、1754年 - 1763年）は、七年戦争のうち、北アメリカを舞台に繰り広げられた一連の戦闘である。イギリス領アメリカ植民地とヌーベルフランスが主な戦場となり、いずれも、本国からの援助を得て戦闘が行われた。
At that time I didn’t know the significance of these samples,” he says with a smile.
He still has some of the rock samples he collected in the late 1960s.
(1960sは安全だったんだろうな？)
Prof Misra says his discovery was a significant one.
“Before this discovery, it used to be uni-cellular organisms but the fossils that I stumbled upon were multi-cellular and it established a crucial link in the history of evolution of plant life,” he says.
新境地への移行このヘルシンキでの体験は、それまでのアメリカのロードトリップを追うようなスタイルや社会からの「逃避」をテーマにした作品（『Broken Manual』など）から、人間同士のつながりや親密さを静かに見つめる『I Know How Furiously Your Heart is Beating』という新たなシリーズを生み出す原動力となりました。
1972年から1976年までダートマス大学で英語を専攻し、さらにジョンズ・ホプキンズ大学大学院創作科に進み、1979年に修士号を取得した。ダートマス大学でネイティヴ・アメリカン研究プログラムを設立した人類学者のマイケル・ドリス（英語版）と出会ったことをきっかけに、自らの祖先の歴史・文化について興味をもち、調査・研究を行った。ドリスとは1981年に結婚し、ドリスの実子3人を養子にし、さらにドリスとの間に3子をもうけた[3]。ドリスは小説家でもあり、邦訳書に先住民の子どもを主人公とする『青い湖水に黄色い筏』[4]、『朝の少女』[5]、『森の少年』[6]、『水の国を見た少年』[7]などがある。また、1989年には胎児性アルコール症候群の子どもを描いた『切れた絆 (The Broken Cord)』で全米批評家協会賞を受賞した。アードリックはインタビューで、多くのネイティヴ・アメリカンの文化が完全に破壊され、生き残っている者たちにとって最も深刻な問題は貧困、胎児性アルコール症候群および慢性的な絶望感であるとし、これを原子爆弾投下後の放射線障害に例えている[8]。実際、彼女の作品にもこうした問題に苦しむ人物が多く登場する。

1870年のAutour de la lune（直訳は『月を周って』。以下『月世界へ行く』と称する）である。
南北戦争終結後のアメリカ合衆国で、火器の専門家集団「大砲クラブ」が巨大な大砲を製造し、人間の入った砲弾を月に撃ち込もうとする物語である。前編『地球から月へ』では計画の立案、資金の調達、大砲の鋳造、そして砲弾の発射までが描かれ、後編『月世界へ行く』では、発射後に砲弾に入った3人の男の体験が主になっており、いずれも三人称で書かれている。原書の挿絵は前編がアンリ・ド・モントー、後編がアルフォンス・ド・ヌヴィルとエミール・バヤールが担当した。大砲で宇宙船を打ち上げるという発想は目新しい発想ではなく、ヴェルヌ自身が知っていたかどうかは不明だが、当時、既にロケットは元寇や南北戦争等、世界各地の戦争で使用されており、これを利用する宇宙旅行の物語もシラノ・ド・ベルジュラックが先んじていた。さらに、ロケットよりも技術的には後退した大砲で宇宙船を打ち上げる物語が1865年に刊行された『地球から月へ』よりも137年前の1728年にムルタ・マクダーモットによって『A Trip to the Moon』が刊行されていた[2][3]。これらの作品の続編に『地軸変更計画』（1889年）があり、併せて「大砲クラブもの」と呼ばれる。

I don’t have any pictures of my baby bed! But I do remember the colour of the towel on my bed. (I was 6 months or something)
I have a photo from my childhood…(Of course my real prints are stolen so this is FAKE:(!), I’ll send it to you instead of my BABY BED photo.)
MY BED MEMORY?
I was sleeping on top bunk(and my sis was on lower bunk), I had 3 cats at that time, CYA was on my chest while I was sleeping :) happy memory! I was reading Never Ending Story when I was 11 on my top bunk,(before the movie, I was not happy with the different story of the movie by the way )…”that’s for an another tale”. Did I read something SF? (A spaceship story in my childhood bed?)
-
A surprising coincidence with reality: In his story, Verne set the launch site of the spacecraft near Tampa on the Florida peninsula in the United States, and the landing site in the Pacific Ocean. This is strikingly similar to the actual Apollo program’s launch at the Kennedy Space Center (Florida) and the splashdown in the Pacific Ocean, and it has been passed down as a romantic prediction of the future.
(AI auto translate)

As a romantic prediction of the future?:)
Have you read something like this? (A romantic prediction!)
Coz I’m writing a dystopia novel now :( (bit scary one! There will come soft rains?!?!)
I love Captain Nemo and Nautilus! (“Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea” I was reading when I was 8 or something!)
but I didn’t read “A trip to the moon” by Jules Verne 月世界旅行.
So prob I didn’t read a spaceship story in my childhood bed…
A surprising coincidence!?
I often find those coincidences on the road :)!
Then…I am in my BED now coz I had heat attack and heart failure at Monsieur Dior Shinsaibashi while I was working as a chef…
From my past to present,
Can you see my BEDS with my words?
IDFK if you don’t see proper beds! (Inadequate? Fuck that haha!)
I’m sleeping in my bed. (heart failure ? after side effects of antibiotics!? Tough life! Staying alive is no jive! To survive in flat field in Osaka)

It seems that Bristolians are so proud of explorer John Cabot that the city’s revamped shopping centre has been renamed in his honour.
But who was the Italian-born adventurer who got lost on the way to Asia and discovered North America, and what is his connection with Bristol?
John Cabot – or Giovanni Caboto in Italian, meaning either coastal seaman, or, according to some ‘big head’ – was probably born in Genoa in 1450, but may have been from a Venetian family.
In 1476 he married a young woman called Mattea (the female version of the name Matthew) and after travelling widely as a merchant, moved to England around 1490, settling in the port of Bristol.
In May 1497, with the support of the Tudor king Henry VII and some hard-headed Bristol merchants, Cabot sailed west from Bristol on the 70-feet long Matthew with a crew of 18, hoping to find a route to Asia.
One of his main backers was the Sheriff of Bristol, Richard Amarke, who sought reward for his patronage by asking that any new-found lands should be named after him.
It’s believed by some that Amarke’s family coat of arms, which can be seen in the Lord Mayor’s Chapel on College Green in Bristol, as part of the Poyntz crest, later became the USA’s stars and stripes flag.
Journey’s end
On 24 June, 34 days after leaving England, Cabot sighted land and called it New-found-land. He believed it was Asia and claimed it for England.
A full-scale replica of The Matthew
He and his crew went ashore in three places and brought back several pieces of evidence of their voyage, including a needle for making nets, a snare for catching animals and the jawbone of a whale.
Cabot returned to England, presented his finds to King Henry and with more funding began to plan a second expedition.
In May 1498, he set out on a further voyage, again from Bristol, with a fleet of four or five ships, aiming to discover Japan.
The fate of the expedition is uncertain – one, storm-damaged ship returned to Ireland, the others were never heard of again. It is thought that Cabot eventually reached North America but never managed to make the return voyage across the Atlantic.
One of Cabot’s three sons, Sebastian, was to become almost as famous as his father. He sailed to St Petersburg, was the first Governor of the Muscovy Company of Merchant Venturers, and led an expedition that discovered the coast of Brazil.
But he could never beat his father’s achievement, the discovery of a continent that Europeans did not know existed.
I found a letter from Alec before I go to super market (4min by bicycle)
I could, but it was a bit difficult for my heart (after Sat? It was hard! I didn’t but I was thinking 119!)

“When you’re young you think that time moves forward. At 80 you know that it doesn’t, it stands still. We’re the ones that move,” 85-year-old singer writes in op-ed tied to Trump’s birthday
英語のディランの言葉そのまんま読んで考えてみよう
“The best thing about being 80 is that you outlive the clocks that have been chasing you.
So…I don’t have to see the clock? If I turn 80??? I don’t give a fuck??? (I don’t have to be 80, to feel that way haha)I never felt like “the clocks are chasing me” kind of feeling, I guess…
− It’s freedom from the lie that anything was ever under control,”
the lie?
You told lie to yourself?
Or…Someone?
anything was ever under control?
I’m not 80 yet,(I just turned 50) but I know that
Nothing is ever under control in a way
(けっこう英語で読むと英語で違うこと考えだしちゃうな？日本人でばいりんがる？わかる？)
Dylan said about turning 80. “You don’t chase the parade anymore. You’re an old king from some vanished country. You’re harder to program.”
You’re harder to program.
(Is it really?)
So is there parade “to chase”?
Never saw vanished country
Or
KING in me…
Elephant in a dark?
Vanished country I’ve never SEEN
(ディランの言ってること
英語での方がもうちょっと理解できるかも？^_^)
On the downside, however, “The old fire in your heart still tells you to do this and that, but your body says we already did it. Also, nothing surprises you. It sounds like a luxury but it’s not, and also you’ve run out of illusions,” Dylan wrote.
−
Also, nothing surprises you.(…I kind of know! I’m not 80 yet, but I’m not in my 20s as well, and sometimes I don’t feel like I’ve never been here or never seen this or that! I’m not fresh in a way?
I’ve been Morocco, I saw full moon rise from the dune… ah once in a life time experience!
I’ve seen THAT MOON! but still…
Nothing surprises you?
It will be again! “Once in a life time experience if I see “THAT MOON RISE” from the dune!
Something special!
Sounds like a luxury?(I don’t know this kind of “luxury” I guess… will I? If I turn 80???)
you’ve run out of illusions
I hope all the Human beings run out of illusions! (Why do they need 偽本？)
So they need to become 80?
Who wants illusions? (いや、、、だから偽本なんで作りたいの？ハッカーと侵入者？)
But I honestly want to show that despite if you have a disability you can be a leader and change the world and work hard for success and don’t give up on your dreams because, I don’t accept less I always strive for the best and I never accept defeat.
