It's real summer, isn't it? I've been in the cool air-conditioned room most of the time. It's laxourious. lol
My mother sent me a lot of corn on the cobs last week, so I still have some of them in the freezer. I cooked a few cobs on the microwave oven and had one of them just now.
It's reminiscent taste of my childhood at my hometown. When I close my eyes, I could see myself eating corn sitting outside in front of my house. All of the doors and windows are open, because there is no airconditioner.
But there is a nice breeze in the alley.
Suppose the taste of corn in old days wasn't as good as the present one, but I feel like it was much better than now.
At my hometown, there is a very beautiful river. My elementary school didn't have a pool, so in summer we walked to the river to learn swimming. Sometimes we went to the river with cucumbers, tomatoes, a kind of cheap melons and occasionally watermelons. It was the most enjoyable time to the students. I still remember the cucumbers and tomatoes just with a little salt tasted very good.
Oh, I still remember my childhood very well. Wow...Oh well, don't ask me what I ate for dinner yesterday.

Those are very good memories!
I also couldn't remember what I ate yesterday...
Where is your hometown?
If you are O.K., please tell me.
Corn is so delicious especially in summer.
I like a watermelon too.
美味しそう！！ とうもろこし大好き～＾０＾ 川で遊んで、野菜を冷やしてそのまま食べれて・・幸せな子供時代を過ごされたんですねぇ！川の水は綺麗で冷たくて気持ちよかったでしょうね！
Hi ksn,
Thank you for your comment.
Oh even YOU don't remember your dinner yesterday? lol
あっついですね。私のキッチンは、西向きで、今にも燃え上がりそうです。
Hi kyoko,
Thank you for your comment. My hometown is near Kozagawa(古座川）。

The water in the river is still clear. When I visted there last year, I caught a lot of river shrimps.
Hi sunny,
Thank you for your comment. It's still a beautiful river. As the water is clean, they can catch ayus in a very unique fishing method. It's the only river in Japan which we can catch ayus in the method.
なんと、懐かしいですよね。同じです＾－＾
I like corn.
So I envy you!
Good Evening everyone,
Hi yasumi,
Thank you for your comment. Old days, we didn't eat any sumptuous meals, but somehow we could enjoy nice food.
Hi orie,
Thank you for your comment. Oh, do you like corn? How do you cook it? My mother's corn was amazingly good. When I got it, I ate it on three cobs. lol Don't imagine I'm fat.
It's really summer, isn't it?
I've been in the ['a' or 'our' -- 'our' would be best, because it's your house] cool air-conditioned room most of the time.
It's laxourious. luxurious!
My mother sent me a lot of corn on the cobs last week, so I still have some of them in the freezer. ["Corn on the cob" can mean "many ears of corn" as well as "one ear of corn." Don't ask me why! ;-) ]
I cooked a few cobs in the microwave oven and had one of them just now. [On the bus, in the car, go figure ... ;-)]
It's reminiscent of a taste of during my childhood at in my hometown.
When I close my eyes, I could can see myself eating corn, sitting outside in front of my house.
All of the doors and windows are open, because there is no air [space]conditioner.
I suppose the taste of corn in the old days wasn't as good as the present one, but I feel like it was much better than now. [I would write this: "Maybe the taste of corn in the old days really wasn't better than the taste of today's corn. Yet, reflecting back on my childhood, I think it was!"]
In At my hometown, there is a very beautiful river.

It was the most enjoyable time to the for us students.
I still remember the cucumbers and tomatoes, withjust with a little salt on them. They tasted very good!
Oh well, But please don't ask me what I ate for dinner yesterday.
This is simply a WONDERFUL story! "Reminiscent" -- wow what a large vocabulary you have, Vermilion! This story makes me hunger for corn on the cob AND a visit to the town of MY youth! Very well written! ;-) A-
Good Morning John boy,
Thank you for your corrections. Mmm, I still have a lot of typos. boo hoo.
Good morning.
I like a corn too!
The air conditioner is still not in our house :D
This diary makes me nicely. It's typical Japanese pastoral scene.
Hi Haru,
Thank you for your comment. Oh, you like corn too. Please drink a lot of water not to be dehydrated.
Hi toto,
Thank you for your comment. I'm glad you like the story.
oh! sounds good!
When I was elementary school student, I swam in the river in summer.
I remember it was fun! What a fond memory. ^^
