A first-grader had become a fourth-grader
The miso I made was pale. Quite different from the colour I was used to seeing on the shelf.
I knew, and still did not do it
Miso can be made at home. I had known that for a long time.
What I wanted was not for sale
I looked everywhere. The thing I wanted to use was not sold anywhere.
The day I knew that I did not know
I put it on my face every day. When I think about it, that is a lot of trust.
The answer keeps changing
Back then, I was always checking my answers against something outside.
TANE JOURNEY
What we want to hand over is not a big answer or a perfect form.
BOOKLETS
The longer pieces
are made into small booklets
When a subject is followed from beginning to end, it becomes a booklet rather than a post. There are four now. All free, handed over by keyword.
- Food, daily life, skin. All one piece.
- Miso starts to look different.
- Setting washing aside for a moment.
- There is a reason for a summer kitchen.
