October 13th is ‘Sweet Potato Day’ because it’s 13 ri (old Japanese unit of distance), 4 ri more delicious than 9 ri!,’ which is a wordplay meaning that sweet potatoes are more delicious (‘more’ is synonym of ‘4 ri’) than chestnuts (synonym of ‘9 ri’.)
The illustration shows a striped parakeet drawn to the smell of roasted sweet potatoes.
By the way, I wonder if the plastic bags are still charged when buying roasted sweet potatoes (I hope the striped parakeet has enough money!).
I created an autumn atmosphere with bamboo flute and acoustic guitar, chasing after the roasted sweet potato.
Feel free to listen if you’d like🍠
Striped parakeet, if you keep eating so many roasted sweet potatoes, I wonder if you’ll turn into a roasted sweet potato yourself. 🐥🍠
