This week's corner view is "best kept secret".
The weather in NY is similar to the weather in Japan but I think less humid. Most of Japan gets hot and very humid in the Summer but I like that kind of weather.
These are my favorite things to have....
fuurin (a wind bell)
Geta (wooden clogs)
Kakigouri (shaved ice)
They used to make me feel cooler when I lived in Japan!
** Please check out Spain daily to see other corner views!!
bonnes vacances!

oooooooh, these images cool me down already! Love your food interpretations, and always look forward to them!
I love your drawings Natsumi!
We have a fuurin hanging on a tree outside, though I did not know the name "fuurin" until now :)... and when I was small I was fasinated with the "geta" sandals and flying fish and would draw them all the time. Reincarnation? Maybe :)
Lovely secrets - I have to check out the shaved icecream now!
Shaved ice is just delicious, especially when some flavored cream is added! My favorite is coconut, or strawberry!
:)
Shaved ice, now that will cool you down.
I love your pictures - so creative!!
What is the secret of your beutifully simple and evocative drawings?
PS Did you know that we Italians invented Japanese shaved ice:)?. We call it granita
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granita
and I'm sure it goes all the way back to Roman times:)!
The shaved ice sounds perfect!
Those links are so great! The girls loved them!
Love your drawings so, so much! And I mean SO MUCH!!
Happy Day!
Awesome!
love your best kept secrets.
do you know all my fuurins?
hugs!
i love kakigouri, too! hope you're enjoying the storm after a hot (and very humid) morning, natsumi. you always make me smile.
It's true what Cate said...your posts always make me smile, too!
The kakigouri looks like a perfect remedy for the heat we have in Los Angeles right now!

Oh your secrets are so cute!
That makes me think oh my childhood: when I was young (4 years old), a friend of my parents offered me some Geta from Japan! Very little! It was hard for me to walk but also magic!
Thank you Natsumi for your lovely posts! It's always a pleasure!
oh, i just love your posts ! and this one especially took me back to my three years spent in Japan !!
love these sweet little drawings!
perfection.
I have yet to try shaved ice, the name alone make it sound so interesting ;-)
lovely and beautiful natsumi! hope you enjoy the summer with these great getas! :)
your drawings always make me so happy. thanks for the wonderful post.
gorgeous!
ooh, i've been craving kakigouri! yum yum :9 i love your drawings!
i 'm just discover your blog: i'm totally in love with the poetry inside...it's like crawling in the clouds! i put it in the links of my blog...
I love the pictures, their simplicity is so much better than many complicated compositions that I've seen in sketch. I will browse through the blog to see if there are any more of those sweet things :)
lots of sparks

i think i'd feel pretty darn cool myself wearing those geta, while eating kakiguori and listening to a fuurin :)
beautiful pieces of art. as always!
oooooooh, I would love to have those too (and it's not particularly warm, they just look amazing)!
fab drawings, fab blog, love it! :)

My daughter loves kaki goori.
I wonder if it will always be one of her favorite summer things too.
Wonderful drawings, they make me feel cool just to see them.
Happy summer days to you.♡
PS I met my husband in NY!
