自家栽培のナスは美味しかった。十一月にナスが取れるなんて驚いた。
Home-grown eggplants are delicious! I am surprised they can be harvested so late in the year.
Just the other day, another foreigner was complaining that Japanese brag too much that they have four seasons. As if other countries don’t have that. While I agree that four seasons are not unique to Japan, I am amazed at how long spring and fall last here in Tokyo. Just a few days ago, I harvested my last three eggplants from the balcony garden. They were small and delicious in a spaghetti sauce I shared with a friend.
