I did it! I came to the 28th store "Aomori Special Products Center" last yesterday and achieved it. When I talked to the sales floor, I was more and more happy to say, "Congratulations." When I got the "stamp rally Guide", I noticed that there were quite a few shops I had never visited, and I thought, "This is bad," so it's a good opportunity, so I'm aiming for "all stores." There are many new stores on the first floor of a new building on the main street, and it seems that there are not only merchandise sales but also fashionable cafes and restaurants, but it seems that the current trend is that there are "fixed customers" in long-established classes such as Kumamotokan in the 22nd year, shops in the 23rd year, and Aomori Prefecture in the 27th year, from conversation with clerks. It's the "face" of Chuo-ku. Many of the products I found for the first time, I just bought them, and as a result of achieving 28 stores, my house has a unique appearance of a "national souvenir market". I would like to introduce some of them.

If you think about it, Chuo-ku was a cluster of products nationwide during the Edo period. The largest number of antenna shops nationwide in Chuo-ku is "I wonder if I will do it!" Oh, yes. I'm looking forward to next year. I hope you win the present too.

 

 

The other day, in a blog article by correspondent rosemary sea, I learned about Eitaro Sohonho's Japanese confectionery class. Even if I make a cake, I don't know the ingredients when it comes to Japanese sweets, so I applied immediately.

　

On the day of the event, we had guidance with only 20 people in the coffee room at the main store in Nihonbashi. In the bright and spacious space of the main store and the flow of dignified air, the experience of knowing the good traditions of Japan is truly unique.

　

I made three kinds of raw sweets. Even among the many Japanese sweets, raw sweets depict the changing nature of the seasons and seasons. The sensitivity and delicate techniques unique to Japanese people are full of small sweets.

　

The first is Sazanka.

"I expressed the verge of blooming Sanchahana, which begins to bloom from late autumn to early winter when there are few flowers," he said.

　

　

The second is red.

"The autumn deepened, and the distant mountains of deciduous tree expressed red, yellow, and brown changing the color of leaves as red layers."

　　

　

The third is fruitful.

"I painted nishikitama and made a gradation with authentic red yokan and yellow yokan, and drew it with the shape of autumn leaves."

　

　

From the thin fingers of young female craftsmen, delicate petals and autumn leaves are quickly created, but we fall away and collapse. But one hour later, three raw sweets filled with autumn taste were completed.

　

　

We also heard valuable stories that Japanese sweets are five grains, namely, millet, rice, red beans, and cane, combined with the preservation of tradition, and that there is a hard time there.

　

From now on, I would like to remind you of today's experience and enjoy a bite and bite while loving the finest raw sweets of modeling beauty created from your hands while preserving tradition.

　

 

 

This is a rosemary sea, which arranges "gifts and enjoys myself".

"Love in the opera"-with humorous chatter-

It was held on October 7 and it was very fun, so I will report it.

　The starring was Aiko Koori (Mezo Soprano), Naoki Ikeda (bas baritone), and the piano was performed by Yasuko Matsumoto.

I'm really looking forward to it because I don't usually have the opportunity to come into contact with Obella.

　"What is love?", sung in Figaro's marriage, was a song that I had heard somewhere without knowing it.

I was overwhelmed not only by their singing skills but also by their acting skills in large gestures.

Even after all the performances are over, the applause of the thunder does not stop, and it is a request of encore.

　According to Naoki Ikeda's proposal, "People from any country have their hometowns, and they must not hurt their hometowns.

Let's cherish each hometown together, "and the audience sang "hometown" and felt very refreshing. .

An event that is always fun and helpful. From now on, keep an eye on the website of the Chuo-ku Cultural and International Exchange Promotion Association
