●Anger is "hot water" ● Impatience is "rice cooker" ● Loneliness is "seasoning" ● Expectation is "rubber" ● Loneliness is "vacuum cooking"

 Another chance encounter!


Today I went for a photoshoot at Iseshima!!!



The camerawoman, Atsuko!


Fuel up first with Tenmusu!


They originated in Tsu City @ Mie Prefecture

Did you know that?!

Yone Mizutani, the first owner of the restaurant, came up with the idea in the early 1950s from a makanai dish. She wanted to make something a little more nutritious for her husband during the busy lunch hour at the restaurant, which served a tempura set meal."

For her husband, who was busy at the restaurant, his wife Yone Mizutani made "tenmusu" as a makanai.(food for the staff)

Shofukutei Tsurube, who had a TV show in Nagoya, popularized the dish so maybe that's why people have the image that it originated in Nagoya?!

    1. Anger is "hot water" →  [wait until it cools down] Anger is like hot water. You burn yourself because you try to touch it right away. If you give it some time to cool down, you will be able to deal with it calmly.
    2. Loneliness is "seasoning" → [Adding a little makes life more flavorful] Loneliness is like a seasoning. It may seem harsh, but adding a little makes life more flavorful. Let's realize that loneliness teaches us the importance of connection with others.
    3. Envy is a "telescope" →  [The farther you look, the smaller you feel] Envy is like a telescope. If you only look at the greatness of others, you will feel small. Sometimes it is important to turn the telescope the the other way around and take a good look at your good points.
    4. Expectations are a "rubber" →  [If you stretch it too far, it will break] Moderate expectations can motivate us, but if you stretch the rubber too far, it will break. Have realistic expectations, but above all, have expectations to be yourself. 
    5. Confidence is a "wallet" → [Don't overspend and don't store too much] Self-confidence is like a wallet. If you spend too much, you become arrogant, and if you save too much, you become timid. Spend moderately and save moderately. Keep that balance in mind.
    6. Impatience is like a rice cooker→ Unnecessarily checking or rushing will only result in a poor outcome. It is important to trust the process and wait. Unnecessarily checking and rushing will only lead to poor results. It is important to trust the process and wait.
    7. Jealousy is like eye drops. 【a small amount can clear your vision. If you use too much, it will hurt your eyes, but in the right amount, it will clear your vision. It is an opportunity to notice the strengths of others and often leads to personal growth.
    8. Solitude is "vacuum cooking" → [time to condense flavors] It may seem lonely at first glance, but it is an important time to face yourself and condense your inner flavors. Through this time, you can become a more profound person.
    9. Stress is like a "muscle".→[If you don't use it at all, it weakens] but if you use it in moderation, it becomes stronger. You can become mentally strong by dealing with stress well.
    10. Shame is a "story" → [Don't hide it! Put it out there! Embarrassing experiences are the best story book! If you can transform them into humor and laugh them off, your sense of self-affirmation will increase, and you will be able to shorten the distance between you and those around you. People who can talk about their failures in a funny way are attractive. Don't hide your shame, turn it into a funny story, and you have nothing to be afraid of!
    11. Tension is the "wind"→【let it blow without defying itIf you try desperately to resist, you will end up losing your balance. By letting go of the tension, you will be able to calm down naturally.
    12. Emotions are "farts" → [It is easier to let out a fart than to hold it in] Isn't it hard to hold in a fart? Emotions are the same. Don't be shy about expressing your feelings, but think about how you can express them.


Look at this!
