Hello! It's a beautiful day, isn't it?
So Bmam is very busy for housekeeping.

begging Sugar(=^・^=)

But, but Bmam cannot stop writing today.

Bmam cooked blueberry jam　this morning.
Because the jam was running out.

Blueberry is good for eyes,
so Bmam regularly makes the jam or sauce for cakes or yugurt.

How to make jams?

Well,, wash blueberries well and dry.
Then put them in a pan.

Pour granulated sugar on them
and wait for some minutes until their juice is coming out.

Then add some sugarcane sugar
(that contains minerals) from Okinawa.

Now you can start cooking.
Don't have the blueberry burned with strong fire,
but simmering.

When the blueberries get soft enough
and have a lot of juice,
put some drops of lemon juice.
Almost jam is made.

But, it is not finished yet.

You have to preserve the jam.

Put it in a jar and cap on the jar not tightly but slightly.
Steam the jar for 20 minutes to pasteurize.
Tighten the cap.

Now it can be preserved for some months.

Any questions?

Ooops! Bmam has to go back to her house work.

Bye for now(^^)/~~~

Bmam has not seen you for a while.
How are you?
Bmam visited Tanzania Day held in Nagoya.

Do you know about Tanzania?
Tanzania is located in Eastern part of African continent.
And it shares the border with Kenya.
Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania is popular.

What kind of images do you have about African countries, there?
Bmam has the image; a lot of wild animal, deserts, spacy plains and jungle covered with greens.

Tanzania is exactly what Bmam images.
There are many national parks, such as Serengeti National Park, a reserve for wild animals.


At the festival, Bmam saw very bright pictures called "Tingatinga"

Bmam talked with an Tingatinga artist.
He painted many flowers and wild animals.
Bmam asked him about the flower's name in a picture.
He answered, "it's a flower, African flower."
What!?

Later, Bmam found that in Tanzania flowers don't have special names.
Because they are not useful.
While, animals have names.
Because they are edible, useful for living.

Bmam enjoys Tanzanian tea and coffee.
Asante (= thank you in Swahili.)

Bmam will be seeing you sooner.

It is a beautiful day, a bit cold though.

Bman finally could take a picture of a Hapase white-eye.




This bird usually visits Bmam garden in pairs from late Autum to early Spring.
But it is difficult to take good pictures by a celphone camera.
They visit the garden to eat flowers or nectar of a sasanqua(camellia).
