🌊🤼THE KAPPA (河童)🥒🙇♂️ cool moon bubbles on the water surface the fart of a water goblin 月涼し水面ぷくっと河童の屁 -Issa (小林一茶). Some of my favourite sweets, obis and charms of the past year have featured kappa, so I thought I'd talk about these impish creatures today🙇♂️
There is no clear indication that Yasaka-jinja's crest is related to the humble cucumber, but astonishingly everyone involved in the Gion Matsuri continues to uphold the no cucumber rule in July🥒😵
For spectators, chilled cucumbers on sticks have become a popular festival food.
🥒THE MONTH WITHOUT CUCUMBERS🚫
The crest of Yasaka-jinja (八坂神社), home to the Gion Matsuri, resembles the cross-section of a cucumber, and thus the fruit has gained sacred status during the festival.
One of the strangest customs in Kyōto is the giving up of cucumbers for July!

…炊飯器ONぬ。
1時間近く待つのかー。遅くなんなー。
いや、ご飯28時間浸け置きは無理じゃないのかというアドバイスを受けたので使うことにしたさー。
でも時間を犠牲にするので、キュウリおつまみ食べとく…
と言うことで
枝豆、スイートコーン、バジルに胡瓜を蒔きました 
枝豆以外は自家採種したヤツね
これらの管理は屋外で、もう大丈夫でしょう！
（夜間に玄関入れることはあるかもだけど）
そして水やりが大変になってくる季節…
