- Thank you for visiting my usual weekday video.
It was rainy and cool on that day. On rainy days, I like to sit down and relax.
So, I decided to read Harry Potter which I gave my son when he was little.
It was a perfect weather to have relaxing time.
For lunch my son and I had chicken cutlet sandwiches.
And after lunch, I took a nap as usual.
I had to drive my son for his job interview after napping, so I cooked dinner.
Tacos rice is my kids one of favorite dishes.
When I came home, It was time to work.
.................................................................
At night, I enjoyed having tacos rice and lemon liquor with frozen Yuzu❤️
Thank you for watching!
I hope you'll enjoy my ordinary weekday.
Love♡tomomo

Thank you for another beautiful posting 😊
Thank you for commenting again😊 Is New Zealand getting cold?
Enjoyed hearing your thoughts today, hope your son did well!
I’m glad you enjoyed it! Yeah… he was a hard time to find his part-time job. I hope he can get one soon🤞
@@tomomo3108 I’m sure he will! Wishing you all a great start to the weekend!
I didn't know frogs could be this loud haha! Thank you for the video :)
I know right? I heard that some man sued a rice farmer because the frogs there were too loud😅
Hola Tomomo !!, thank you, as always for your video, I loved it...I really like to see your kittens, they are beautiful, and you have added a new guest, the woodpecker, but I have not been able to see it.🙄
I hope your son has been lucky in his first job enterview, here in Spain it is very rare for a teenager to work and study, here young students don't work, it's quite weird, because in Europe you can see it, but in Spain I think young people are “under the wing” (Spanish expresion) of their parents for a long time and almost no university student ask for a loan, either gets a state scholarship or it is paid by their parents (It differs from what you told me that happens in Japan) here kids are quite pampered in that aspect and it shouldn't be like that. In my case, I did work and study in my college days, but I was practically the only one who did it in my class.
Much encouragement to your students and whatever they choose, try to be happy, here is an expression that says "you have to aspire to a lot, but you have to know how to settle for little"
It has caught my attention that you use an "Italian" type coffee maker, I use the same one, it seems to me that the coffee comes out better and the aroma of coffee spreads throughout the house... I also like Lavazza coffee and Segafredo Zanetti (Italian brands) In Spain there are also coffees like Las Candelas or La Estrella (if someone Spanish read this, they would say many other brands).Here almost everyone uses capsule coffee machines, I don't have one, I'm old-fashioned...besides I only drink coffee on weekends, I'm not a big fan of coffee but when I drink coffee, I like that it tastes good.
Regarding the robberies you mention, I thought that Japan was a very safe country and that there was not much delinquency, but the crisis makes many to choose to steal because it is a quick fix to obtain easy money, it's a shame, here in my town sometimes they steal, there is not much delinquency but you have to be aware of it and not to make it easy for thieves.
About Harry Potter, I haven't read anything or seen the movies, I'm not very attracted to the story, although I must be one of the few people who haven't read it, I'll tell you something about JK Rowling, I don't know if you know that she lived in Porto, Portugal and it was there that she started writting, she was in a bad marriage at that time and she wrote her histories in cafeterias. Well, in Porto there is a bookstore which it is said to have inspired her the writtings for Harry Potter saga, now she says that it is not true and in Portugal they are disappointed with the author because that bookstore (called Lello), which is very old, is highly visited by fans of the Harry Potter saga, in fact last summer I went there on a tourist visit and despite everything there was a long queue and we couldn't get in, but it's beautiful... it's a cute bookstore, it doesn't matter if she now says that the inspiration didn't come from there. In case you are curious I leave you the page

Anyway JK Rowling admits that she did go to the majestic cafeteria to write.It is a beautiful place that also always has a long queue of tourists, this is the place:

I think you would you like Porto, it is a place that mixes the modern with the old, there are many Port wine cellars that you can visit and they are nice.
I would like to write you more, but I don't want to bore you. Finally, I liked your dissertation on religion, should we have the opportunity I will tell you my impressions about it.
I send you a big hug for you, your family, the kittens, the swallows, the distant frogs and the little bird... Always with love, from Spain, Silvia.😘
Hola Silvia! Thank you for writing me again. I never get bored your comments, I love reading them so much.
"under the wing" is very good expression. We have similar meaning of expression but it's really different, we say "Biting the shin of parents"😂.
For girls, we say "A girl in the box", who doesn't know much about outside of the world. It is rare to have part time jobs for high school students. Many Japanese high schools prohibit part-time jobs, but not my son's school. He is fifteen yet, so he has a hard time finding one.
I like espresso! Though, I usually have only weekends. Espresso beans are pretty expensive since most Japanese people don't drink them. I am happy to hear you are using the same coffee maker, I don't like the big machine because we don't have much space, you know?
Thank you for the stories about JK Rowling, yeah, I have read some articles about her before but I did not know about cafes. Wow these places are beautiful. I have traveled to Europe when I was twenties, but definitely I want to go back there some day. Too many countries that I want to visit! I need to have good foods and wines❤️
I always have a little hesitation to talk about religion... I don't want to offend anyone but I wanted to be honest about us. I guess Japanese sense of religion is quite different from other countries. Ghibli shows well our visions though.
Love love love talking with you.
Talk to you soon!
