近況

最近暑い日が続くためか、疲れが抜けない。
I can’t get rid of my tiredness, probably because the hot days have continued recently.

新聞などで聞こえてくるニュースも感染症のニュースが多い。
Most of the news heard in newspapers is about infectious diseases.

日々思う

感染症に日々おびえつつマスクを着用して生活しているためか口の渇きがひどい。
I am very thirsty, probably because I am scared of infectious diseases every day and wear a mask.

のどが渇くと、高校で習った古典を思い出す。
When I’m thirsty, I remember the classics I learned in high school.

古典では中国の武将がのどの渇きに苦しむ部下に、前方に大きな梅林があると伝え、それを聞いた部下がすっぱい梅を連想し口の中で唾が湧き出し、無事水源までたどり着いたという話を思い出す。
In the classics, a Chinese military commander tells his subordinates who suffer from thirst that there is a large plum grove in front of them, and the subordinates who hear it associate it with sour plums in their mouths.
I remember the story that spit sprang up and reached the water source safely.

食欲

そうだ、日本の伝統食梅干しが食べたい。現代は、昔のように梅林は必要ない。ネットでぽちっと買えばよい。いい時代だ・・・
Yes, I want to eat Umeboshi, a traditional Japanese food. Today is like it used to be
You don’t need a plum grove. You can buy it online. It’s a good time …

たくさん梅干しがネットで掲載されており、情報弱者の筆者ではネットの海に溺れてしまい梅干しが決められない・・
A lot of pickled plums are posted on the net, and the author of the information vulnerable
Then I drowned in the sea of the net and couldn’t decide on pickled plums …

梅干し

そんな中、家人が株式会社・中峰農園さんの「紀州南高梅 はちみつ漬つぶれ梅・2Ｋｇ」を即断即決。
Meanwhile, the family member is Mr. Nakamine Farm Co., Ltd.
“Kishu Minamitakaume honey pickled plum, 2kg” is decided immediately.

たいしたもんだと私が感心している間に、数日後しっかりと梱包された梅干しが届いた。
While I was impressed that it was a big deal, after a few days firmly
The packed pickled plums have arrived.

感想

まだ食べていないが、大量の梅干しを見ているだけで、マスク越しの口の中で唾液が出てきた・・
haven’t eaten it, but just looking at a lot of pickled plums
Saliva came out in my mouth through the mask …
