https://ameblo.jp/sachibimomo/ 英語のこととか、料理・食べ物のこととか、好きなこと書いています。 ja
少しパサパサしていたけど、美味しい。

チョコケーキが一番すきかな。

ちなみに今ブラウニーを調べたら、イギリスで言い伝えられている妖精のひとつが
ブラウニーというらしい。知らなかったなぁ。

Gateau au chocolat from a pastry shop near by.

It was a bit dry, but it was still good.

I guess I like chocolate cake the best.

BTW, I was looking up brownie in wiki, and I found that
one of the fairies in England is called Brownie.

I learned something new today!

食後のデザートに・・・。

つい食べ過ぎてしまった。

Hello Kitty shaped pancakes stuffed with all kinds of fillings like red been paste,
custard, chocolate, strawberry milk cream, just like Ningyouyaki!

Oh no, I can't stop eating them...

結局、私には募金することくらいしかできなかった。

でもこれからもずっと考えていきたい。
何か自分に出来ることはないか。

今でも多くの人が被災地で戦ってるから
少しでも力になりたい、そう思います。


It has been a year since the earthquake.

Only thing I could do for Tohoku was to donate money.

But, I still keep thinking about what I can do.


A lot of people are still struggling there.
I want to keep supporting Tohoku in many ways.

シーザーサラダ。
真ん中に乗ってるのは温泉タマゴ。
カリカリベーコンがいい感じ。

アーンドとろとろオムライス、デミグラスソースがけ。

ん？タマゴ食べすぎ？
そういや、お昼はタラコスパだった・・・。
コレステロールがぁぁ・・・。

Today's dinner is...
Caesar salad!
The thing in the middle is slow boiled egg.
I love crispy bacon in my salad!

The other dish is fluffy egg omuraice with demi-glace sause!

Wait, how many eggs did I use today
?
Speaking of which, I ate cod roe spagｈetti for lunch...
That's too much cholesterol!!  ]]> https://ameblo.jp/sachibimomo/entry-11189932611.html Sun, 11 Mar 2012 20:35:35 +0900
フレッシュバジルとトマトでマルゲリータ。
新しいオーブンレンジをかってからよく作るんだけど、ピザって結構簡単ですよ。

Yesterday, I made Pizza.

This is Margherita　with fresh basil and tomato.
Ever since I bought a new microwave oven, I often make pizza.
It's actually easy to make.

でもスタバとかで飲むと、やっぱり高い・・・。

というわけで専ら　おうちカフェ。



濃い目に淹れたコーヒーにミルクﾎｲｯﾊﾟｰでふわっとしたミルクを入れたら
結構それっぽいし、美味しい

今日のコーヒーのお供はチョコケーキ　（しかも切り落としw)

係数抑えて、なかなかのおやつタイムでした。

I like cafe latte. I love white chocolate mocha.

But they are too expensive at Starbucks.

So I make some coffee at home.

I put some warm whipped milk into my strong coffee.
It just looked like a gourmet coffee served at a cafe, and it WAS good!

Today's dessert was a chocolate cake.
(It is cut-off cake, I don't know if it makes sense in English, but it is the cheap kind.)

It was a nice coffee break! It was good that I was able to save some money on it!

でも得意料理はって聞かれるとちょっと困る。

冷蔵庫の中にあるもので出来るものを作ることが多いので。

昨日はにんじんとたまねぎがたくさんあったのでポトフを作った。
忘れ去られてた大根とキャベツも入れてお野菜たっぷり。
ポトフに大根？って思われるかもしれないけど、とっても美味しい。
ウインナーもいれて結構ボリュームのあるポトフが出来ました。
30分くらいで出来ちゃうから重宝するメニュー。

後は前に買ってあった、パクチーと生バジルを使いたかったので、
鶏ももの残りで、タイ風チキン炒め。
いつもはピーマン、たまねぎ、エリンギなんかを入れるんだけど
長ネギくらいしかなかったので、お野菜は長ネギのみ。
このタイ風チキン炒めはお野菜は結構何でもいけるかも。

家にある材料だけで、いろいろやりくりして、きちんとしたお食事ができると、凄くうれしい。(≡^∇^≡)



I like cooking.
But, if people ask me which dish I am good at, then I'm not sure.

I like to cook something with the ingredients I have in the fridge.

I made pot-au-feu, because I had many carrots and onions.
I found white radish and cabbages I bought long time ago, so I put them too.
Some people might think white radish doesn't go with pot-au-feu, but it actually is good.
I put some sausages too. It became pretty filling.
It doesn't take too long to cook, so I often make this.

There was one more dish. I had some cilantro and sweet basil, so I made Thai chicken.
The chicken was so small, but oh well.
I usually put green pepper, onion, king oyster mushroom, but I didn't have but green onion.
I think any kinds of veges go with the dish.

I feel so good when I am able to cook nice dishes with ingredients I have at home.

出し抜けに

「女性に服装のことを言うのはアレだけど・・・。」と話しかけてきた。

”えっ　派手すぎる、とか相応しくないとか言われるかな・・・どきどき”

と構えていたら

「おしゃれでイイネ」　といってくれました。

こんなことを言うのは良くないけど・・・。と繰り返してましたが、

褒められると　やっぱりとても嬉しいものです。



When I was making some tea at the kitchen in the office, my colleague suddenly talked tome,
saying

"I shouldn't comment about women clothing, but..."

I immediately thought 'Oops, Do I look too flashy? Does he think it is inappropriate?'

He continued saying

"Your style is fashionable."

He was worried that could be sexual harassment, but I took it as a praise.

Praise always makes me happy.

"I don't buy it."

This is the same as " I don't believe it".

My students totally forgot what it meant though I taught them this phrase once before.

Oh well, I will try teaching harder...

ほかにもカッパを着たチャリ通の皆様がちらほら。

歩道には通学途中の小学生のグループ。
集団登校のようで高学年の男の子を先頭に低学年の子供達が道をふさぐように歩いてくる。

当然こっちは通れないので自転車を止めてその小学生をやり過ごす。

すると先頭のお兄ちゃん小学生が、後ろの小学生に端によるように促す。

それでもきびきびと動こうとしないので
”一列っていってるだろ！”と一括。

当たり前のことかもしれないけど、小学生で下の子にきちんと指導できるっていいな。
雨だけど、よい一日の始まり。


This morning, I was biking to my work in the rain as usual.

There were some other bikers here and there.

A group of elementary school kids was walking towards me.
Some sixth graders were leading other lower grades who were blocking my way.

I couldn't go through, so I stopped my bike and let them go past first.
The sixth grader noticed that I couldn't go, and told the others to move to the side.

Still, the lower graders didn't react quickly enough.
The oldest kid showed his dignity, shouting "I said move. Now!"

Maybe that was totally natural thing to do, but sixth grader can take a leadership by scolding the lower grade kids.
Seeing that made my day happy.
