Happy spring

The mugwort which has developed in a garden was picked this afternoon.
The spring of this year was cold, and vegetable growing was slow remarkably, and it didn't also flower easily, but it becomes warm gradually, and various flowering plants have begun to grow up like a burst of enthusiasm.
Our friend who lives in sunny land shared a sprout of a lot of cod in the evening.
We'll have it in a dish of the dinner right away.
