Back in last autumn, October of 2018, I made my homemade pickled plum. I cannot buy Japanese ume in my living area, so I used plum instead. My homemade pickled plum is a foreign countries’ version of umeboshi. I have checked the condition from time to time. I never saw any mold or anything badContinue reading “Taste of my homemade Nukaduke and umeboshi 9/5/2019”

While my friend was visiting us, I heard about our common acquaintances. I met my friend at the Lakota tour. I was there as an interpreter, and she was attending as a tour customer.

We are visiting Navajoland for the Labor Day weekend to spend time with my parents-in-law. As usual, it was a long drive. It usually takes us around 9 hours to get there.

I went to the local laboratory. At this laboratory, people can order a lab test on their own, even without a doctor’s order. Each test fee is clearly described in their official website, and their fees are affordable. Beforehand I made an appointment and ordered the tests online. I ordered two tests. One is calledContinue reading “Lab test 8/28/2019”

I had my 10th acupuncture treatment with my first acupuncturist. I had an acupuncture treatment 7 times with my second acupuncturist.
