Journal of a "Bride" in New York

I write my daily experiences outside Japan.

Parking

We go to church in Manhattan.

We can park cars on the streets on Sundays, but they are almost occupied all the time.

We've got to drive around and around to find a parking space.

I prayed that we could find one, and thanked in advaned that it was already provided for us.

Then found a space in front of a Baptist Church!

My husband asked me what the parking sign said, because it read some regulations.

Before we could find it out, a guy who was standing in front of the church gave us O.K. sign.

Thank you, Brother.

When we returned from church, a violation ticket was placed on the front view glass of a car right next to us.

We were safe thanks to the brother angel.

A Second Guest

I had a second guest to visit us from Tokyo.

This was my first time to prepare a meal for a guest in our apartment room.

Not to stress out over it, I decided to prepare the two dishes my husband spoke favourably of,
plus Korean-style marinated grilled beef, which all I had to do was to grill.

Then, received a present of food: steamed rice with red beans, tempra, meat loaf, etc.

Unexpectedly, our table was richly decorated with many kinds of dishes.

Thank God.
