I think your writing has rules of grammar, and natural.
I admire it.

〉〉〉〉Hi, everyone. This is Hamako.
〉〉〉〉Do you like "Daigaku Potatoes"?
〉〉〉〉I love it!
〉〉〉Considering anew of this, what a strange name, Daigakuimo is!
〉〉〉Isn't it ?
〉〉Oh, at first, I was going to write "Daigaku Imo".
〉〉Then I changed my mind.
〉〉I thought it's more funny if I write "Daigaku Potatoes".
〉〉(It had not much mean.)
〉YEAH ! But I forgot to mention in my previous article.
〉I remembered it after I woke up this morning.
〉Here again. How impatient I am !
〉Actually, it was the most important reason to make me reply you.

Oh, well.

〉At the instant when I saw the title "Digaku Potatoes",
〉immediately I had realized what you were saying in your
〉article intuitionally...
〉"You are again, with a recipe, followed to your ODEN article."

fumu, fumu.

〉At the same time, I think how the funny expression
〉"Daigaku Potatoes" is, half of Japanese and half of English,
〉and then many many ideas flooded in my head....
〉'How about "College Potatoes" ? Haha...'
〉'No, no, Daigakuimo has to be a kind of proper-noun, so
〉it could be left exact Japanese expression...'
〉'Humm, before it begins, where does the origin of this
〉strange Japanese come from ?...'
〉Then I asked it Google.
〉'Er.., there are several origins..., anyway "Daigaku" might
〉mean Tokyo University ! So the expression "University
〉Potatoes" or "College Potatoes" would be possible...'
〉'At any rate, it must be such a funny mess all around it.'

I got you!
I expected when readers saw the title they'd got a little confusion and started think with several ideas.

〉So I can eat much portion of vegetables with them, and it
〉must be good for my health, I think too.

I made a "Chinese soup nabe" for yesterday's supper.
First, I made a base soup which contained some sea weeds,
sake, mirin, soy sauce, salt, pepper, sesame oil, water
and pasted Chinese soup which called "Shan whei" (I don't know its spell) by Cook Do, Ajinomoto.
Then took some vegetables and meat like onions, bean sprouts,
cabbage, carrots, etc, and pork back ribs.
And of course Chinese noodles.
My husband and I add red chilli peppers in it.
It was so yummy!!!

〉〉I love sweet-potato, too.(^^)
〉〉Was it delicious?
〉Yeah ! I love sweets, too.
〉I also love alcoholic drinks and delicious foods,
〉make me happy and peaceful.

I think so, too.

〉You know, at the time like this situation,
〉the only thing we can do is simply laughing, anyway...

Aha.

Have a happy delicious day, Dora!
