"mame" means tiny

Kaikouchiwa

Humid!!! I can't wait for end of the rainy season. I heard this summer will be hot! I don't like A/C, but maybe I will use it this summer. I found this cute paper fan. You buy fan frame and put four or five silk worm, then wait for a few days.

In Japan, we have an image "Bonsai is the elder peopel's hobby". Or he approachs Bonsai as miniascape. Look at this. ha ha ha so cute they are! ( that is the same old scene of long-runing show). But as Bonsai they are perverted taste? So How about this. They are cute, cool and gorgeous in less than three inches!. They call them "Mame Bonsai". Mame means "beans" in Japanese and we attach "mame" description to miniature size stuff. For example, Mame bon (miniature book), Mame shiba(miniature shiba dog), Mame chishiki (a trivia), Mame denkyu (a midget lamp).

It doesn't rain too much, but in Michigan, we're surrounded by lakes. So, it gets so humid sometimes, you feel like you're swimming just walking out the front door. I know how it feels as well.

Those bonzais are so cute! They're so small, though. I'd probably lose them. (^-^;;)

It's not the rainy season here in the Washington DC suburbs, but it's been hot and humid beyond belief. I feel your pain.

I try not to use the AC too much either, but sometimes there's no avoiding it. :-)

the bonsais are pretty nice. Im not sure if like to take care of them but seems like its a one type of art. clip, snap you plants to the way you wanted to look like. its kinda like a small tree.
