Kiyo's day revolves around cooking and nourishing the maiko. In the morning, she gets ready quietly so as not to disturb the sleeping maiko, makes breakfast and goes grocery shopping after seeing the maiko off. Mid-day, she prepares lunch for the maiko who have returned from lessons, preps ingredients and serves supper to the maiko before they leave for entertaining. At evening time, Kiyo cleans up before going to the public bath and takes a stroll enjoying Kyoto at night.
Hot soup warms
the body and spirit on cold days.
الحساء السّاخن يدفئ الجسم والرّوح
في الأيّام الباردة
Heiße Suppen wärmen Körper
und Geist an kalten Tagen.
Tomar sopas calientes en días fríos
Una sopita bien caliente
en los días fríos
Une soupe bien chaude
les jours de grand froid,
Nelle giornate fredde, una bella zuppa calda
 ti riscalda corpo e anima.
Sopa quente esquenta nosso
corpo e o coração em dias frios.
Горячий суп согревает
тело и дух в холодные дни.
