3 Persimmons

Last year I harvested one persimmon. This year I have three. I picked one and ate it already. I think I will pick the other two today. Very tasty. It might be possible to have too many persimmons, I think. Eventually, if the harvest gets a bit bigger, I think I will be able to handle it. If it gets bigger than a dozen or two, I will have to think about how to store or process persimmons. So, three for this year is a good number.



Of course, this reminds me of my favorite Japanese tongue twister.

隣の客はよく柿食う客だ。
Tonari no kyaku wa yoku kaki kuu kyaku da.
The visitor next to me eats a lot of persimmons.
