my favorite season

i think autumn is the best season to eat and read books.
and it's the sleepiest season.
because the weather is mild and the air is cool.

my favorite tea


green tea is very popular in japan.
tea originally came from china., but now it's different way to make it.
green tea is a very healthy drink.
regular drinkers have lower risk of heart disease and certain types of cancer.
most of japanese green tea is grown in shizuoka.
even some elementary schools there have tea come out of their taps!!
summer is the best season to drink cool green tea!

my melon


this is "yubari" melon from Hokkaido.
i think it's the most delicious melon. it's so sweet and juicy.
in summer, japanese usually eat watermelon but i prefer this melon.

my first chai

i made chai which is Indian spiced milk tea with my english teacher.
she loves India and drinking tea.
it is easy to make. we need some milk, spices, sugar, water and black tea.
we put all of them into sauce pan and boiled them.
we used cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves.
you can put many different spices in. anything you like.
it was too spicey for me so i put in a lot of sugar. that became perfect taste for me.
i know i have a very sweet tooth!

my ayurvedic dosha

today, i did a questionnaire to find out my dosha.
dosha is a fundamental force. there are three; fire, air and water.
ayurveda is traditional indian medicine. we need to find balance in our dosha.
most people have one or two dominant dosha.
my dominant dosha are PITTA-KAPHA.
pitta is fire, kapha is water.
when i read about P-K it was true for me.
i was surprised that i only answered some quetions, but it could tell me about my personality.
