Book - A Shot in the Dark - 66
Summary no. 66
Although it was Mrs Groynes who was pointing a gun at his head, constable Twitten still felt compelled to remark that it was his duty to arrest her. That was classic Twitten. Rules set order and balance, thus he needed to enforce and follow them. Mrs Groynes explained that if Twitten brought her in, Inspector Steine would dismiss his accusations against her. And even if Twitten managed to sow seeds of doubt in the Inspector’s mind—which it’d be impossible since Steine despised Twitten—he didn’t have any evidence to back up his theory. Mrs Groynes liked Twitten and didn’t want to kill him. She outlined her plan to him to settle the matter and bring the ongoing investigation into Crystal’s murder to an end. In short, she intended to frame the late Braithwaite. Twitten was both stunned and appalled. It was inconceivable for him to go along with such a plan. His upbringing forced him to stick to nothing but the truth. Mrs Groynes pointed out that Inspector Steine would no doubt accept Braithwaite’s guilt, simply because it’d require much less paperwork.

An Old Fruit Shop
Near home there are a lovely and old vegetable fruit shop. The several fruits are placed in a perfect order in theirs wooden boxes. In the middle of each box the seller put a black sign with the price written with a white chalk. The price is written in kg, for example, the tomatoes are sold at 2,80€/kg. But the avocado is sold by pieces, for instance 2,50€/each. Out of curiosity, the shop has put in the walls a placards with the text "Not touch", so all you want to buy, you must ask to the shop assistent. The shop sells a lot productes "de proximitat", that means the product is cultivated not very far from Barcelona. The artichokes come from close crop, and the oranges are harvest from two hundred and fifty km away. In the last century, all the fruit shops was as this, but today, most people go to buy the fruit at the supermarket.

La bici y la guitarra
Hace tiempo que aprendí montar en bici sin conducir con las manos. A través de varios años de práctica incluso he desarrollado la habilidad de doblar al lado derecho o izquierdo sin usar las manijas. Un día un compañero me observé cuando estaba pasando su calle en bici. Después me contó que le daba gracia la forma en que pasé por encima el badén con facilidad y luego seguía en mi camino como si nada. A pesar de que la mayoría de los ciclistas no llevan casco, yo sí por si acaso me tropiezo con el borde del andén o que me se me pincha la rueda y no puedo reaccionar con tiempo como para evitar una caída. Supongo que no se protegen con casco por motivos de confort o moda, aunque cada vez que montan se arriesgan accidentarse y sufrir daños cerebrales. Encima los cascos de hoy son menos abultados que los de las decadas anteriores. El otro día tuve que transportar una guitarra a la casa de una amiga para ensayar. El estuche tenía asas para cargarlo como una mochila, pero hace años que se perdieron. Así que yo puedo llevarlo en las manos, pero durante los días vientosos actúa como una vela que me desvía cuando está golpeado por una ráfaga.

Turkey bread and Tzatziki sauce
Do you know Tzatziki sauce? It was great. It's from Greece. I found that recipe on the Internet. I had a enough yogurt and wanted to make something with it. Ta da! It was good. How to make it is very simple. You just put some spices such as garlic, salt, pepper and cucumber. Oh, cucumber is not a spice. Anyway I think it's the key ingredient you should put into. It matches very well with yogurt.
I baked Turkey bread last night. It also taste good. It is flat shape bread and taste like nan from India. You can spread butter on and sprinkle dried crushed red pepper. This one is the key here. Dried crushed red pepper gave me surprise. It really matched with bread. I could enjoy in satisfaction.
There were vegetables that I have been growing in my garden and pork I bought in market. And onion! Onion will give you familiar taste. As you know it is core ingredient when you make a sandwich. If you have coriander it's gonna be fantastic! Perfect! Oh, I forgot one thing. The coffee. I drink decaf for ages because of my heart. My heart stomps when I drink coffee and it's hard to asleep. This was today's brunch. I am full and in satisfaction.

Mi primer día en la escuela
Esto ocurrió hace mucho tiempo. Para mi primer día en la escuela primaria, mi madre me preparó un sándwich y lo puso en mi mochila junto a mi bebida. Yo solía tomar jugo de manzana todo el tiempo cuando era niño. Poco después de llegar a la escuela, me di cuenta de que todo el jugo se había derramado sobre el sándwich. El sándwich y toda la mochila tenían un olor que todavía recuerdo con mucha claridad. No he olido nada así desde entonces, pero sigue grabado en mi cérebro y en mi nariz.

2 mai 2022 - Dans la peau d’un autre
Si vous pouviez être quelqu’un d’autre pendant une journée, qui seriez-vous et pourquoi?
C’est une question intéressante et j’ai beaucoup de réponses, par exemple la peau de mon ancienne professeur préférée, d’un haut fonctionnaire, de la tête de l’université etc., parce que je pense que c’est intéressant d’essayer être quelqu’un d’autre et trouver l’autre côté de sa vie derrière les clichés. De plus, je peux aussi découvrir la pensée derrière chaque décision prisée.

Which City do you want to go to? / Activities in countryside
I’ve always dreamt of going to Los Angeles. I’ve always seen the Beach, Streetlight, Venice Canal on TV and imagined myself there. Moreover, Los Angeles seems to be a very liberal city and immigrant which I would be into.
Firstly, I like the outdoor activities, such as farming and gardening, playing outside, hiking, or walking barefoot on the soil and grass and frolicking around open fields but not walking barefoot in the mud. Secondly, I love to do meditation in an open area field. However I like the countryside, I’m definitely a city person. I feel too limited in the countryside.

La nuit de Walpurgis
Hier, j'ai célébré la nuit de Walpurgis. Dans la plupart de Suède, on célèbre la nuit de Walpurgis avec un grand feu et des petits marchés qui vendent barbe à papa et des amandes grillées. Mais non dans les villes qui ont beaucoup d'étudiants. Hier étaient mon première fois dans une ville comme celui-ci. C'était très différent !
Nous avons commencé avec un petit déjeuner qui consistait de gruau d'avoine et des fraises. Après, nous sommes allés au centre de la ville pour regarder des radeaux qui descendaient le grand fleuve. Tous les radeaux étaient décorés. J'aimais bien le radeau qui a l'air comme un panda.
À midi, nous rassemblons dans un parc. Je crois qu'il y avait peut-être mille de personnes ou plus. Nous nous avons cassé entre tous les gens et avons mangé "du hareng à l'Arcipelago".
La nuit a fini à la suite d'un dîner et danse dans le syndicat étudiant.

By the way,
A is a me.
B is a foreigner.
A: For breakfast on the 30th, I bought a premade butter chicken curry from a convenience store and dipped bread in it.
B: Sounds so delicious!
A: It was soooo good!
Even convenience store food can't be fooled with these days, right?
B: Exactly. What did you have for lunch?
A: I skipped lunch, and for dinner, there is a seafood specialty place about 30-minutes drive from my house, so I bought oysters there and ate them in a pot with tofu and shiitake.
B: Nice!
A: Can you eat oysters?
B: Sure! Many Americans eat oysters!
A: Wow, I didn't know that!
I had an image that they don't like that kind of grotesque looking stuff.
B: Not at all! Of course, there are some people who don't like them.
A: Yeah, it's true.
B: What did you eat for breakfast 1th day?
A: I didn't eat breakfast. I had "somen" and pork buns for lunch.
B: What's "Somen"?
A: "Somen" are Japanese noodles that are made from wheat flour.
B: How're they different from udon?
A: Maybe, but the thinness is different.
I think if the diameter is less than 1.3mm, it is called "Somen", if it is more than 1.3mm and less than 1.7mm, it is called "Hiyamugi", and if it is more than 1.7mm, it is called "Udon noodles".
B: What's the difference between "ramen noodles" and "udon noodles"?
A: I think the water used is different.
"Udon noodles" are made with water, while "ramen noodles" are made by mixing an alkaline solution called "Kansui" with flour.
B: What about soba noodles?
A: Soba is made from buckwheat flour, so I think it's a different thing.
I don't know if it's correct, because I don't know much about it.
B: Anyway, there're many kinds of noodles in Japan.
A: Yeah. There are many other kinds of noodles. There are noodles that are kneaded into the noodle, there is udon with only one noodle in it.
B: Interesting.
I wanna go on a noodle tour myself.
A: That's a good idea.
But you can't eat that much. lol
B: Leaving some of them. lol.
A: That's not good. lol
That's unethical. lol
B: What did you have for dinner?
A: Meat and eggs stewed with soy sauce and vinegar, and komochi shishamo.
B: What is "komochi shishamo"?
A: I don't know how to say it in English.
Spirinchus lanceolatus" with row.?
B: Well, I don't know much about fish names. lol!
A: I think "with roe" is correct for "komochi", but I don't know how to say "shishamo"... "Willow leaf fish"? "Smelt"?
I don't know how to say it in English either. Anyway, "shishamo" is "shishamo". LOL!
B: "shishamo". I'll keep that in mind. LOL.
How do you eat it?
A: Most people eat it grilled.
B: Do some people eat it as sashimi?
A: Yes, but I've never had it.
B: "Shishamo with roe" sounds like "oyakodon".
A: Why? Oh,I see! lol
Come to think of it, you are right.
B: Japanese people must really like to eat family! lol
A: Yeah, that's right. lol
Alas... that's sad, but it's really delicious to eat family. 🤦
B: You must be a cruel race! lol
A: You don't like to eat family?
B: I don't know, I've never had it. lol
It's like love in excess.lol
Like you love the family so much that you eat them. lol

By the way,
A is a me.
B is a foreigner.
A: For breakfast on the 24th, I bought a curry-flavored paste to put on bread and I ate it on bread.
B: How was it?
A: So-so. I don't think I'll buy it again.
The ordinary curry bread be sold everywhere in Japan is better.
B: I've had curry bread once and it was better than I thought. Curry and bread go actually well together.
A: Yeah, it's like eating naan with curry.
B: Indeed. What did you have for lunch?
A: I made and ate "肉まん".
B: What's a "肉まん"?
A: A pork bun
B: Oh, OK.
How did you make it?
A: I made the dough with pankcak-mix, then I make a filling with pork and chives or something, put it inside, and steam it in a pan. That's all.
B: Did it make well?
A: Well, I made the dough too thick and and it became hard. But the taste was ok. I used pankcak-mix to make the crust, so it's a little sweet, so maybe kids'll like it better.
B: You like to cook?
A: Well, not really. lol
But sometimes I feel like cooking.
B: I kind of feel you, there are days that cooking is a good stress reliever.
A: Yeah, but it's hard to do it every day
B: Mothers are great!
A: Nowadays, there are more and more single fathers and househusbands and men who do housework, so a person who cooks every day is great.
B: Yeah, certainly.
What was for dinner?
A: I got it from a Japanese bento place called Hotto Motto and I ate it.
B: What's "bento"?
A: Japanese lunch box.
B: Oh, OK! What kind of bento?
A: I think it was "Oyako-don".
B: What's it?
A: Chicken and egg over rice.
B: What does "oyako" mean?
A: The meaning of "oyako" is parents and children. Chickens is the parent and the eggs is the child, that's why "Oyako-don".
B: That sounds a bit cruel. lol
A: Yeah, I guess so, now that I think about it. We should really be grateful for the ingredients.
B: Yeah, right.
What did you eat for dinner?
A: Granola.
B: Oh, there are a lot of people in the U.S. who eat granola. But American ones tend to be sweet.
A: I see. I think Japanese granola is moderately sweet. The sweetness of the fruit stands out.
B: I wanna try some Japanese ones.
A: I wanna try an American one too.
B: Do you want to send it to each other?
Just for granola. haha
A: I wish there aren't shipping fee. lol
But I can send it if you insist. lol
B: I think there's no need to do this much. lol
A: OK. haha
B: What did you have for lunch?
A: I put chicken and beaten egg into "Shin ramen" and ate it.
B: Great, sounds delicious!
What did you have for dinner?
A: 焼き鳥.
B: What's "焼き鳥"?
A: "焼き鳥" is a Japanese specialty where various parts of the chicken are skewered and charbroiled by the chef. They are usually served simply with only salt or dipped into teriyaki like sauces.
B: Ah, "Yakitori"!
It is also called "chicken skewers" or "chicken kebab" in other countries.
A: Oh, I didn't know that.
I'd like to try some "yakitori" from overseas.
What 's it going for?/How much does it cost?
