SFX: MusicANN1: A male frog is loved only for his croaking. A female peacock chooses her partner only by his looks. A male lion chases his wife away so he can eat first by himself. Great horned owls cannot build their own nest. With tigers, leopards, and polar bears, the father always lives apart from his family. The mother cuckoo lays its egg in another bird's nest, then flies off. People, on the other hand, express love in many ways. Husbands and wives share their happiness. Parents and children have closer relationships than anyone else, living and spending time together. People live as families in their 'home sweet home'.When you come home to your family, isn’t it great to open the door and smell the welcoming aroma of a delicious home-cooked meal you’ll soon enjoy together? To Panasonic, this is what home cooking is all about. For example, a combination steam oven that can simultaneously grill and simmer, or a rice cooker that never fails to serve up delicious rice, even down to the crispy brown portion at the bottom. Products carefully conceived for delicious home cooking, making every meal a family event. The joy of cooking and eating make time with the family more precious than ever. For people, time together with your family provides the energy to meet each new day. ANN2: Panasonic. Ideas for life.
