Good mornevening, Yuming ! 🌅🌃 Yellow garden dahlia is lovely, isn't it ?🌼 I received a boost of vitamins from this yellow flower.🤗💛💪👌 "Pinnata" is, as you noted, the Latin word for "pinnate" (feather-like), which describes the unique foliage of the dahlia, where small leaflets are arranged symmetrically along a central axis.🪽🧐🌿😄 Oni-chang posted a photo of an orange dahlia I took in Giverny, France🇫🇷, on GS on September 8th.🧡🌿 It’s a beautiful day☀️ in Osaka for the first time in a while, but I'm staying inside to watch the big game between Hanshin Tigers🐯 and Yomiuri Giants🧡 on TV.🏟️📺🤔💦 Hoitara-ne.🌞✌️💦 ➡️⚾️🧡Won 16:55 ＼(^o^)／🙌👏🎊

@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yuming for your message !😄 Oni-chang have been watching professional baseball since Sadaharu Oh: 王貞治 and Shigeo Nagashima: 長嶋茂雄 were active players for the Giants.⚾️🧡🏟️🌃✌️ I'm familiar with the Giants' V9 era when Kawakami: 川上監督 was the manager.⚾️🧡🔥✌️9 I grew up watching the manga-turned-anime "Star of the Giants: 巨人の星🌟" when I was in elementary school, which made me a die-hard fan of the Yomiuri Giants.👌 I still have dreams about the 'Disappearing Ball' thrown by Hyuma Hoshi: 星飛雄馬.（Major League Ball No. 2: 大リーグボール 2号）⚾️🏟️ Hoitara-ne.🌞✌️💦
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Thank you for a message. I visited to my friend’s garden. She has pink~ yellow. She called me~”hi! Yumi, we have just 3 blooming”. I stopped by my walking and took pictures. I thanked to her. Everyday is coming. We will take care of ourselves. Nice day! 😊😊
Good evening. 🌃☔ I see. The dahlia you showed me during your walk was blooming so beautifully. I’m pretty sure I had some dahlias planted in the ground at my place too, but sadly, there’s not a trace of them left now. 😨 It makes me want to bring one home if I spot them at a flower shop again. Wishing you a wonderful day tomorrow. 🐰❤
@ゆうさん Good morning! It’s the weather ~ everywhere in Japan. We California~ we need ☔️ rain. Soon it will be rainy season. We will have a nice day together! Have a great day. with smile 😊
The rain had stopped early this morning, but it’s started to drizzle a little again. Today, I’m going to take it easy and enjoy some coffee while watching videos. 🐰♥️
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ 🎶 I'll wait, I will wait forever, Even if you never turn around to look at me.😢 I'll wait, I will wait forever, Until the day you are dumped by someone else.🎶🎤👭🌞✌️
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) That's right. On days when the weather is bad, I enjoy myself by watching videos in my room and taking care of the flowers I have inside. 😊☺️
@太陽の塔 Thank you for your 🎶 singing. I think you are great karaoke 🎤 singer. …right, you have ever told me that you had got 💯 point with your karaoke song. respect 🫡 I am,too. Ok~one episode In 1988, I participated in a karaoke 🎤 contest organized by my golf ⛳️ course. 45~ members sing~. There was one ☝️ professional judging. His name is Oka Chiaki. Famous song was “Naniwa koishigure”. My karaoke song was “Momoirotoiki”. 🫶I got #1 🏆. And only the winner could sing with Oka Chiaki san. 💕He came up to the stage, and He & I showed “Naniwa ~”. After we finished singing, he said to me. (iine) 😆 He was such a cool and nice looking guy, wearing casual kimono with light weight sandals. I got great gift 💝 from the gift. “Diamond 💍 ring”. How old was I ?… You know my age, it was in 1988. After that ~ I left Japan 🇯🇵. I wish I could go back to my place to play golf ⛳️ in the future. 🤞 I hope. My episode ~ hundred ~ I will tell you. Life~ experience, enjoyment. Fun 🤩 Thank you for listening! 💕
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yuming for your episode story ! 😄🤗👌 The only time I got a perfect score of 100💯 was on my home karaoke system. I’ve scored in the 90s at karaoke boxes 🎤before, but getting a perfect 100 is really tough.😢🤭🎶 You won a karaoke contest with 45 participants ?! ⛳️🎤🎶 That's amazing !🤩😳🏆🎊 "Momoiro Toiki(桃色吐息)" is a song by Mariko Takahashi that was used as a commercial song for Camellia Diamond.👩🎤💎😊 So, you won a Diamond ring ！💍🏆👌 "Naniwa Koi Shigure," a duet by Chiaki Oka and Harumi Miyako, became a massive hit ！🤩👏 It’s amazing that you sang a duet with the singer Chiaki Oka. I often went to karaoke with an unsuccessful singer.😢 Hoitara-ne.🌞✌️
Good evening! 🌃 For some reason, it was sunny today ☀️—it feels like the heat has made a comeback. The flowerbeds in the garden were overgrown with weeds after all the recent rain, so I spent the morning weeding. Then, in the afternoon, my husband and I worked on laying down weed-control sheets in our large vegetable patch to keep the weeds at bay; it’s a job that’s still ongoing, and I’m exhausted after the long day. 🤭
@太陽の塔 Thank you for a message. As I told you~ in those days, I had money to buy~ what. #1 condominium. I had not bought my place to live, but I bought some golf ⛳️ memberships. (STUPID>LOSER). I put almost my money 💴 to pay for the Golf Courses. *I had a nice time with Oka Chiaki san(it was just a small thing). I had a great time in those days with my age. All the economic senior people 😮! They looked at me and we had a great time. in 1980~1990. Anyway I was very different girl in those days. You know how old I was. I told you? My voice is very similar to Takahashi Mariko san. An Luis san. Azusa Michiyo san. … The last time, I went to Karaoke 🎤 place ~… I remember. Episode ~ I will tell the funny story. Next time. 😊”karaoke episode “
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Thank you for a message. Nice to be your garden…with your husband! wonderful Japanese man~ wife loves the garden. He also loves the garden, if it will be~ you will have more enjoyable and more communicative with your husband. The hobby! 💕
Hello! 👋😃 Yes, exactly. Working in the soil with my husband is a great way for us to connect. I’m planning to scale back the vegetable garden from now on and just keep it going by planting flowers instead. I suppose it’s becoming more of a hobby. 🐰💕
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yuming for your funny episodes !⛳️🎤😆😄👌 During the bubble economy in Japan, golf fees were extremely expensive, but they’ve become much cheaper now. Membership prices have also dropped.🏌️♀️🤔💦 Oni-chang remember our conversation about how you listen to Mariko Takahashi and sing Ann Lewis's songs.👎👏🪇 It would be great to sing "Roppongi Shinju" at a karaoke bar in Roppongi.🎤🎶💃 I used to sing this song while dancing too. Do you still sing it at karaoke?🎤🎵🕺 How about we hold an online karaoke competition between Japan🇯🇵 and the US🇺🇸 using Zoom ！🤗👌 Maido-Ari ! 💻🙇🌞✌️
@太陽の塔 Good morning! Thank you for a message. You say~ about my 🎤 ~? where? The last time I went to the Karaoke place. One ☝️ episode. My friends came to my place “Sugamo”in Tokyo. The man is surgeon at his hospital. And She has been with him together for 17 years. Anyway they came to my place(Sugamo station/JR). I took them to stand bar~ and one more place. Finally we wanted to sing~. I have a power. I talked to the manager we runs the Karaoke 🎤 club. Which is called “Minami”in Sugamo. I have know her since 1980s. (I hope She still is there). Anyway ~ I let the club open open for 2 hours for us. It was on Sunday. Lucky day! We had a great time on the stage! How much he paid ~ ¥50000. 😁Thanks! He was very happy. He wants to go back again. It was in 2017 He still works well as surgeon. / coaching to the young ones. He says~ he and his friend will come to my place~ soon. Good friendship forever. You have a great friendship, right! Life. Enjoyable 😊
Good evening! 🌆 Yes, my husband asks me every day, "What's the plan for today?" and we decide what to do based on the weather. Today, I had my husband take a break while I handled the weeding in the flowerbed myself. Since the weather was nice and sunny, he aired out the futons on the balcony for me. I'm so grateful for that.🤗🩷🤍
Thank Yuming for your place messages ! 🤗😆👌 If I remember correctly, you sang at a karaoke bar in Roppongi.🎤👩💃👌
Sugamo in Tokyo is quite similar to Namba in Osaka. Both areas are packed with yakitori spots, ramen shops, robatayaki restaurants, and all kinds of lively pubs. Recently, we've also been seeing more and more stylish, trendy places opening up there.🤔🏮🥃🍜😋😄
There are no shortcuts to any place worth going. Nature revolves, but Man advances ! 🏃💨👌 Maido-ogenki-de-nikkori ! 😊😁🌞✌️
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ 💕I like your husband. He is very similar to my sweet person. “What shall we do today?”😄 And you say~”I want to~~~”. Me, too ☺️it’s cute story. It’s the best couple in the world 🌎! I am so happy ~.
@太陽の塔 Thank you for a message. Do you think so? Sugamo is~ a local place in Tokyo. I will tell one ☝️ episode. It was a story at Sugamo. …the last time I went Japan…9 years ago. I met one couple. He is surgeon, she is the super sales at the department store in Tokyo. Anyway they came to my place “Sugamo”. All of us good drinkers (you know what it means 😄). 1st place, draft beer 🍻, 2nd place, Tobatayaki~. He said, “Yumi san Kalaoke Iko~ yo”… ??I had No idea 🤷♀️ where is~ I asked the manager of the robatayaki. * He knows me well ~ for a long time.(jimoto) I asked him to introduce to a karaoke 🎤 bar. He contacted the big Hall karaoke club ‘s honor and let someone open the door for us(only 3). We had a great time for 90 minutes ~ sung our songs. We are great singer, like you. Anyway we had a good time. How much … he payed? Maybe 5.0. It doesn’t matter for him. He left his business card there. We may go back again. 😄 we still had a great time! After that we were hungry, we stopped by (Nihon sobaya). I had “zaru”only. They were having tempura ~ lots.
When you were in Tokyo, you were young~ you had time to go ? ~ elite person. Let me know~ some stories when you were in Tokyo. You were living alone, right? You are good listener but you do not talk about your story of your life. We will have a good day! 😊
Good evening🌃✨ I’ve just returned home after going to a concert by Hiroko Yakushimaru. She is an incredibly talented singer; while there were many songs I didn't know—including ones with lyrics she wrote herself—she performed a three-song encore. She even sang "Jidai" a cappella at the very end. It was truly moving. I felt a bit like my husband's attendant, but I really enjoyed myself.🐰♥️
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yuming for your talking about your story of your life.🤔😄👌 I have lived in Tokyo twice for work.✌️🗼🏙️ The first time, I lived in a company dormitory for singles in Fukagawa, Setagaya City, back when I was single. 👆 The second time, I lived in company housing in Ogikubo, Suginami City, with my family (my one wife and two children).🤭🏬
When I was single, I used to hang out in Shinjuku, Aoyama, and Roppongi, just living my best life and doing whatever I wanted.🌃🥃🍺🎤🎶🕺💦 iRasshai, Maido-Ari ! 🍣🍵😋🌞✌️
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Good morning! How nice~ enjoyable She is 62 years old today. She looks great! Younger! That’s how~ for the ⭐️ star. In those days they called her “annani chiisana onnanoko ga kikanjyu o kakaete” ~~ she became a top at that time. (by Seira-huku to kikanjyu). /1981 You had a good time. 😊
@太陽の塔 Correction:tobatayaki>robatayaki Ok~ you were living alone in Tokyo. After that you came to Tokyo with your family? (tanshin hunin)? You had a great experience when you were young ~ till retired. I do not know your back ground. Because you do not talk~. You are normal big father of your family. Do you have grandchildren? I have one girl. She will be 9 years old soon. Life~. Enjoyable 😊
Good morning🌅 That's right—"Sailor Suit and Machine Gun" is such a memorable song. She has had a long career in show business, and since she likes Yuming's music, I wonder if she was influenced by her. I was so happy when she sang "Mamotte Agetai," too, because I love Yuming's songs as well.🤗😊
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yuming for your message ！🤗 Oni-chang was just an ordinary office worker at a bank.🏛️💴💵💸🤭💦 I have two sons, and both are still single. However, my eldest son is getting married next spring.💒👱♂️👰♀️ Therefore, I don't have any grandchildren yet.🤱👶👦👧🙅♀️ Today is a national holiday in Japan🇯🇵, ㊗️Respect for the Aged Day. Let's live to be 100！👨🦳🙌 Hoitara-ne.🌞✌️
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Thank you for a message. “Yuming” what you wrote, it’s Matsutoya Yumi, right? She is a great songwriter. I started to listen to her song 🎵 (Arai Yumi/1972). After that she got married and she took her name from her husband. Matsutouya She was growing up at her home Hachioji shi-Tokyo. Her parents we’re running kimono 👘 shop(long established). Her growing history made her a big star in Japan. You like her?! Let’s enjoy her musics. 🎵
@太陽の塔 Thank you for a message. 💐congratulations your the first boy will get many next spring. Excited And later~ you will be a grandfather. You are looking forward to having the day! We will have a good life. Good talking to you today. I will take a rest and have a late lunch~ *avocado 🥗, soup rise/with green onion, seaweeds, tofu, brown rice, chicken breast. With Miso taste Watermelon 🍉 and cantaloupe 🍈. Yogurt with kinako After that~ I make my favorite sandwich 🥪 later. I eat a lot and still still I keep my weight 97 pounds 😊 Have a good day and evening!
I started buying Yuming's CDs whenever they were released, influenced by a friend from a workplace where I used to work. Although I sometimes forget the song titles, I find myself humming along whenever I hear the melodies. I’ve even gone to her concerts with my husband a few times. Yuming is truly tough and her singing is wonderful. If you're interested, Yumi, please give her music a listen🎵🎶—her name is Yumi Matsutoya. 🐰💕
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yuming for your congratulatory message ! 🙇😄㊗️👌 You seem to be eating a healthy diet.🥗🥑🍉😋 Combining these three elements—a diet like this (eating), swimming or walking (exercise), and researching and documenting plants (thinking)—will keep you healthy in both body and mind.🤗👌💦 Hoitara-ne !🌞✌️
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Thank you for your message. Probably you know her name after she got married. My time was … she was “Arai Yumi”/when she was a single. (1972~) She got married with Mr. Matsutoya in 1976. “Hikouki gumo”in 1973~ She wrote Lyricks and composition.(sakushi & sakkyoku) Anyway she is a still great singer. respect ✊!
Oh, right. Before she got married, she was Yumi Arai. After marriage, she became Yumi Matsutoya. "Hikouki-gumo" (Contrail)—that’s a wonderful song, isn't it? 🥰😊
@太陽の塔 Correction/many>married 😅 Good morning! My son got married, at that time I was so happy. He had been with her for some years together and decided ~ their new life. They have one ☝️ girl. She will be 9 years old. Life~. You are looking forward to have the ceremony ~~~. That’s right. Keep being healthy, what we eat every single day. Avoid oil thing~ except Olive 🫒 oil. I told you before, when I have a spaghetti, I just need olive oil with pepper. I sometimes add marinaded & cooked pieces of chicken breast. I can’t have so much(big meals)/AGE. Avoid oil things and salt. ☝️ And 😁I will be able to live another 10 years! You will be 30 years ~ right?! We will go for our lives! 😊
If I type "Hikoukigumo" (airplane trail) using kanji, it comes out as a typo. But Yumi-san probably gets what I mean, so I guess it's fine. 🦆 Yumin's songs just seem to flow right into my heart, even when I'm feeling down. 🐰💕
Exactly. Yuming’s voice just drifts in so smoothly and soothes the spirit. And yes, even when I’m in the car 🚗 playing songs on shuffle, if one of hers comes up, I find myself singing along. 🤗
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yuming for your message !🤗👌 Since my son currently works for a company in Tokyo, they will be holding their wedding there.💒🤵♂️👰♀️ We have also made a reservation at the hotel we are staying at.🏨🚄 Oni-chang use flaxseed oil in my diet to help improve my blood circulation.🩸😄👌 Keeping our blood thin helps prevent cerebral infarction.🤔😊 I also posted this on GS, but the other day I had mackerel Tatsuta-age (Japanese fried mackerel). I cut up the mackerel, coated it in potato starch, and baked it without using any cooking oil ！🐟🥃💦👌 Maido-Ari !🙇📣📣📣⚾️🧡🌞✌️
@太陽の塔 Thank you for a message. How nice! You are looking forward to having a day.🫶 “Mackerel”, it’s the great fish. Even (Saba kanzume), I always have it at home. Saba, Samma are nice ones. Better than Unagi (which I love). I have white fish, “Pollock, Mahi mahi” They are my favorite here. We can’t have delicious fish which you can have in Japan. (Shikatanashi). Keep our life being healthy! I hope you have a enjoyable day, as you do! 😊😊
@太陽の塔 Nice to talk to you today. …I will take a rest from now. I woke up 3:30am. Do this ~ that~ finally I reached this time. It’s earlier than usual. 😊 we will have a nice day~ I am going have my the 1st meal today Avocado. Zucchini miso. White fish. Chicken breast. Nihon soba. …😋I am going to eat a lot! 👋
Music 🎵🎶might just be an indispensable partner in our daily lives. Yuming’s songs are so soothing to the soul. I also use my earphones to listen to tracks by various other artists on YouTube, such as Kenshi Yonezu, Spitz, and back number. 🐰💕
Thank Yuming for your fish messages !😄😋🐟👌 Pacific saury(サンマ) in the fall is very fatty and delicious.😋 But Japan🇯🇵 is experiencing a particularly poor pacific saury(サンマ) harvest this year. 😢🐟🙅♀️ The main cause is an offshore shift, where schools of saury are moving farther away from Japan🇯🇵 due to rising sea temperatures from global warming 🥵and the weakening of the Oyashio cold current.🌊
I'm taking an early morning Shinkansen to Nagoya tomorrow to watch the Asian Games.🚄🏟️🏃🏸🤸🏊♀️💦 Hoitara-ne.🌞✌️
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ p.s. Oni-chang posted a photo of the "Hilton Hotel building" on GS on September 24th. Did you happen to see it ?🏙️😄🌞✌️「いいね！👍」🤭
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Thank you for a message. Talking about our favorite music 🎶! We have some time(years)different. + I left Japan 🇯🇵 in 1991~ my Japanese music has suddenly cut off since that time. Till~ 2000. In those days, there was no info which we have today. I had blank period of Japanese music. Today~ I had come back. Thank to today’s technology. We enjoy music 🎶 all the time. I told you , “I listen to the any kinds of music for a day except my sleep time”. You, too! Enjoyable 💕
@太陽の塔 Thank you for a message. 😋oh~ you talked about “Aki no Sanma”!! It’s the real season. When I was in Tokyo, I had my dinner place in Shinbashi. …I forgot the name. (Sanma + Daikon orishi). It’s the best today! I still don’t forget that. I envy you. You can have it at home? When you bake it, it will be very smoky. Your wife is ok? I couldn’t. Too much smoke + it’s difficult to make it at home. It will be too oily. (Sumi Yaki)☝️
I see. Nowadays, you can listen to songs by all sorts of musicians on YouTube; if you listen to your favorite tracks a few times, it’ll put together a playlist for you—complete with commercials, of course—so I often listen to that through my earphones while doing housework. 🐰♥️
@太陽の塔 Thank you for a message. I couldn’t see it. It’s ok~. Yes. When I visit to Osaka, I will stay at Hilton Osaka. I will invite you and your wife at the executive lounge for cocktails and nice food. Any cocktails & food ~ we will enjoy for a couple of hours. And after that , let’s go to Karaoke 🎤! 😊 * it’s not dream.
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Thank you for a message. Yes. Definitely I listen to the any kind of music 🎶 entire day. Except when I sleep for at least 6 hours. Classical music, smooth Jazz, smooth Chill, Japanese music 🎶 We need music. I do! One time, my era buds did not work well at the club!😤 I had no music for 2 hours. I will do my best . 🎶 Good day together!! 😊
Lately, I’ve been having trouble charging my earphones properly, so they stop working pretty quickly—it’s a hassle having to charge one side at a time while I listen. Listening to classical music really helps calm the mind, doesn't it? Things get done much faster when I listen to various artists while I work. Maybe waterproof earphones would be a good idea! 🐰💕
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yuming for your message !😄👌 Oni-chang agree ! 👌🙆♀️ Pacific saury(秋刀魚) with grated daikon radish and soy sauce is a great combination.👌🐟🥬🧂😋 Pacific saury is best when it's large, especially with a thick back and plenty of meat.👌 I grill Pacific saury in my home broiler, but the smoke doesn't really bother me.🐟🔥☁️😷 Because I also like my whiskey with an authentic smoky flavor.🙇 Oato-ga-yoroshi-youde !🤭🌞✌️💦
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ Well~ you have earbuds, right? And connect with Bluetooth. It’s no problem. Try~ ! I have several earbuds. Each device has some Bluetooth. It’s the great system. Thank you for a message. 😊
@太陽の塔 Thank you for a message. You like fish! I am not sure of Pacific saury. Is it (sayuri)? I used to have this at sushi bar. In autumn. Almost I forgot 😅in those days in 1980s. What kind of whisky 🥃do you like normally. 🥲my Hibiki bottle is almost empty. In the treasure box 📦, I have “Chivas Regal”. I will open it soon. Have a great day in Aichi ! 😊😊
Yes, I'm using a Bluetooth connection. They're rechargeable wireless earbuds—I use them every day, so maybe they've just reached the end of their lifespan? They weren't exactly expensive, after all. 🤭
@ﾃﾞｭﾗﾝｻ It’s good. You use earbuds and enjoy your favorite music. Me, too. All the time except when I sleep. Entire a day! Music gives me motivation for tomorrow. We will enjoy music 🎶 with ear buds/Bluetooth. 😊
@Yumiko (California U.S.A) SAMA✨ Thank Yumiko for your message !😄 I love Chivas Regal, but my absolute favorite whisky is Yamazaki.🥃👌 I usually drink Black Nikka because it’s affordable. 💴⤵️ I rarely drink Hibiki since it’s too expensive for me.💸😢 Is there any of that Hibiki whisky left in your treasure chest? I’m flat broke, but I’d love it if you could share a splash with me！🥃😋😘💗💝🙇♂️ Maido-Ari !🌞✌️
@太陽の塔 Thank you for a message. You know~ “Hibiki”…actually I do not like to have always. It’s too sweet to me. Like ~ sorry. “Chivas regal 12 years”. It has been still popular in Japan. But I do like this one. I do like smell of this one. I have have just opened it. Hibiki>too sweet Chivas regal>too smelly What do I like? I will for the treasure 📦 box later. You came back to your home. Take care of yourself. 😊
