  1. Season Patties with Gobble powder and place them on Grill, with medium high heat, then grill 8 mins first, flip them, place sliced tomato pieces on them, place Sliced Cheese, then continue to grill for 7 mins.

  2. Slice onion, sauté them in small frying pan with Olive Oil, season with salt and pepper.

Japanese Sakura (Cherry Blossoms) in Kyoto and Ashiya

Sakura at my Mom’s

My mother in Japan had a little trip to Kyoto, and enjoyed walking under the nice Cherry Blossoms Trees along the river.

Around this time, my hometown of Ashiya-city and surrounding regions are in peak season of Sakura (Cherry Blossoms), and it is customary to have leisure outings at many famous viewing spots.

The third picture was taken by one of my hometown friends in Ashiya.  Those black and white buildings are actually Condominiums, I remember the time when I was still in grade school, that my Dad took us to see the model rooms when they started to sell.  It was designed by Japanese-American Architect, Minoru Yamasaki, who designed the famous twin towers (World Trade Center) in New York.

Oh I miss Japanese Sakura so much, and I say that every single year in Spring time.
