Have fun!!

Since I started this blog, about one month has passed . 
As you can see this blog, my blog theme is daily life and having fun.
Due to this blog, my viewpoint to this world has changed alittle bit. 

I know life is not always interesting and facinating.
However, If I feel my life is boring, I will change it to attractive way.

I believe  we can change the our current situation
with having a different point of view.
I think this is same as blogstorming which my blogging teacher Ruth taught me.

I tell you how to change the point of view for enjoying our common life.

1. Observing something
2. Do not think too much
3. Connecting it with other things
4. Not Good, Not Bad, Just Is! (by Ruth)

Before cutting!!
Do you think it is something strange??
this parents hold twin babies.  So cute.

has enormous treasures.
Let's go exploring from now!!

Do you want to come with me??

Thank you for all of YOU, YOU, YOU.


Thanksgiving Day is a holiday in the US on the fourth Thursday of November.

First thanksgiving: 
 The Pilgrims  from England - landed in Plymouth. It was December 11, 1620. The cold winter had set in. The land was strange to them, and nothing seemed familiar. The winter was long, cold, and very hard for the Pilgrims.
 
Luckily, Native Americans helped by supplying them with seeds and food, teaching them about their new home, and giving them the skills needed to survive in a strange, new land.The first year in their new home was hard for the Pilgrims. Many died. With seeds and plants received from the Native Americans, the Pilgrims planted crops.
 
The fall harvest was a good one. To celebrate their good fortune, the Pilgrims had a feast of thanksgiving.Many foods were cooked for the feast - wild turkey, duck, and venison were probably served, along with fish, pumpkins, squash, corn, sweet potatoes, and cranberries.   Captain Miles Standish, the leader of the Pilgrims invited all of the Native Americans who had helped them so much during their first year. Everyone had a good day of thanksgiving. The feast lasted for three days! (quoted from ivillage)



Nowadays, Families and friends gather together and have a special meal together on thanksgiving day. Also, it is a day for people to give thanks for everything that they are grateful for.

Thank you, Ruth!!!!
My thanks from Atlanta.


Thank you for my FAMILY.
No matter where I am, no matter where they are, I know we are together.

Thank you for my FRIENDS.
My friends in Japan,  we cannot often meet,
but they always care me, and their mail makes me happy.
My friends in US, they are always kind. Their words "good morning"
make me happy.
I appreciate that you try to understand my poor English!!

Thank you for this EARTH.
I can enjoy my life because this Earth gives me a lot of energy physically and psychologically.
Especially, all animals and plants on the Earth. I cannot live without them.

I cannot express my gratitude in words.


Today is a special day.
What would you give thanks for?

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Please Don't.....

In your daily life, If you say "please don't ......,"  
Do you think you feel irritated ? or happy?

I think  it usually means I might feel irritated.

Let check me how often and when I hear "Please Don't...." in my dairy life.
 
 CHEESE Bagles just out from the oven.
Good Smell. Good Taste. 
 I said to my roommate,
"Please Don't eat too much."
which meant I did a good job in my lunch :)


"Please Don't touch!!"
In my house, I have only my roommate's desk.
Unfortunately, it annoys me everyday.
Of course, my roommate says nothing,
but I know what he wants to say 
because this mess always tells me.
  I want to say,
"Please Don't come into my sight."

WEEKEND Journey

How long was I sitting down in front of the TV??
"TOY STORY", "TOY STORY2", and  "TOY STORY3".
No matter how many times I watch, I never get tired of these movies.
However, My body is stiff...due to these.

Well, let's go outside and find something more interesting than PIXAR's movies.



Let' go exploring.  
Oh, outside is chilly. Anyway,  I'm so excited
what kind of beauty this earth is going to show me today!!
OMG!!   I have a fear of height..
don't look down..don't look down...  (photo by my friend)

 
GO this WAY.
I can't pass through this gate by the car.  WITHIN 5 mph...
Who on earth can walk over 5 mph !? Oh, I found I got lost.
This arrow is MY SHADOW !!!  let's take the different route.

LITANY

You are the FAUCHON tea and the sugar pot,
the scone and the clotted cream.
You are the butterfly on the peony
and the yellow rose in the vase.
You are the diamond of chandelier
And the spiral stairs in the house.

However, you are not the Barbie in the bureau,
the dust on the bookshelf,
or the spine of the old table. 
And you are certainly not one chopstick which lost its partner.
There is just no way you are one chopstick which lost its partner.

It is possible that you are the bush warbler of the plum tree,
maybe even the harmony with violine and cello,
but you are not even close
to being the noisy sound from TV.

And a quick look in the mirror will show
that you are neither the fold of the handkerchief in the pocket
nor the clock which never forgets its tempo.

It might interest you to know,
speaking of the plentiful imagery of the world,
that I am the cheese-like yoghurt in the fridge.

I also happen to be the piled books in the corner,
the line of ink wandering on the desk,
and the spider web sticking on the ceiling.

I am also the Ruby in the jewel box
and the silky pajamas
but don't worry, I am not the FAUCHON tea and the sugar pot.
You are still the FAUCHON tea and the sugar pot.
You will always be the FAUCHON tea and the sugar pot.
not to mention the scone and -somehow- the clotted cream. 




My favorite singer :

MIWA YOSHIDA (from DREAMS COME TRUE)  

Her smile and songs always give me a power to live.

Check it up!!!!! 
 "LOVE LOVE LOVE"

THIS I BELIEVE

 In our life, I do think  people can't live without believing.
Some people believe God, some people believe LOVE, and some people believe MONEY.
Whether  the belief is big or small,  or visible or not,  people believe something to make their own life better, or to keep connecting with their world.  Believing give me a power.


THIS I BELIEVE:  ROUTINE


ROUTINE is a basic of my life

ROUTINE is what I do

ROUTINE is what I decide

ROUTINE is not always easy

ROUTINE is what I can change by myself

ROUTINE is myself
                                                                                      This illustration from here

Having breakfast is my routine.   Just bread and coffee?? or Cinamon pancake and mango salad with 100% fresh peach juice??

Brushing my teeth is my routine.   Brushing roughly and getting tooth decay?? or Brushing carefully and keeping clean and white??

My daily routine consists of what I do and how I do.
I believe that if we can enjoy our routine,  we would never feel our life is boring.

Are you satisfied with your dairy routine??

BLOGGING about BLOG

 I've just begun to blog and to connect with your daily life that I 've never experienced.That's why now I'm very curious about blogs, so this week I was exploring in the blog world on the couch with hot chocolate. 
 I am surprised because there are enoumous blogs in this world. Some are popular and often uploaded, but some are not uploaded for a few years as if time stopped. Finally, I discovered several sparkling blogs  which is so valuable.


These five passionate blogs will bring my blog to some hints because these blog makes me happy.

1.Les Adorables - 愛すべきパリの人びと
This blog is photo blog, BUT it's not just photo blog.
This blog would make everybody laugh with not big but small, although most pictures show common dairy scenery. This blog has the power to turn the daily life into funny story just changing the viewpoint.

2.Single Father, A Humor Blog
This blog is about his daily life as a single father. I think he might sometimes have some difficulties  in  his parenting, but he seems to enjoy his parenting and his life.
 As this title says, this blog has Humor, so it makes me happy.  I could imagine his feeling through his blog. I like his positive thinking.

3.The world through my eyes......
This blog describes the blogger's opinion throuth her viewpoint.
I like this blog's design. The letter is so cute. And I like her opinion which are not like teenager. She has her world. I hope I express my world like her.

4.Heart Soul Inspiration ♥
This blog tell us the blogger's inspiration she gets through her life.
Once I read this blog, I can't stop reading, because I think her blog is vigorous and written at up tempo, that's why I got involved in her blog.

5.はんなりマンゴー
Actually, I read this blog before I start to blog. This blog is about exploring his town to find himself with his cute dog called "Mango". First, I like his beautiful photos. Also, each blog entry is intellectual, so I can absorb in a lot of knowledge from this blog. Unfortunately, since this is written in Japanese, most people can't understand what this blog says, but I believe that you could enjoy this blog with only photo even though you don't know Japanese.

These blogs are so nice. I'm sure you are lucky  if you visit their blogs because these will make you feel happy!! 

Blogging world is a great world. We can connect with a lot of people and We can share our thinking or feeling or everything that we want to share!!


If you know shiny blogs  through their dairy life with nice pictures, interesting viewpoints, and the power to make people happy,  please let me know :)  I keep exploring.

Welcome to my world!!

Welcome to PEACH PANCAKE VACATION.
Thank you for coming to my blog , and I'm so happy you are here.

This blog will take you to  the exploration with me through my daily life.  I hope this blog could make people feel excited and happy who think daily life is boring.

Sometimes I felt my daily life was  nothing but a routine. Just I wake up, say "good morning", have breakfast, brush my teeth, and......just breathing without meaning.  "I wish I had a vacation!!!"

Fortunately, now I have a long vacation.  My vacation is so long that it has become almost my routine life, but it is so exciting because I noticed that our Earth is a wonderful place to explore, and filled with delicious foods. Just changing the point of view, our daily life will turn shiny story.

Everyday,  the sweet scent of pancake comes around a train station, although there is no restaurant and no house near the station. Let's go exploring with me to find where it comes from. 
02/2009 in Philippines
I've found the pancake that I was looking for!!
I can see this beautiful world over the pancake.
It's up to you what to do the next in this world.

OPEN SESAME!!
