Flowers by the roadside entertain me while I’m walking. Right one is called Hotoke-no-Za (Buddha’s Seat) because it looks like Buddha is sitting on a lotus. Left one is called Hiyoko-Gusa (Check’s Weed) because checks love to eat these soft leaves. I made boild Hiyoko-Gusa with soy sauce dressing. It was delicious. (2011/03/20)
