Well
, our Setsubun party has begun~
The party today was at my big sister's house~~
First up is.........
TA
DA!
what was on the menu for tonight
o(^-^)o
Isn't this kamaboko (steamed fish paste) adorable~?
And there was also karaage (deep-fried meat, usually chicken)~~~
and, potato salad~~
And because it's Setsubun
, we had ehoumaki[note: ehoumaki (恵方巻) is a Setsubun tradition -- uncut sushi rolls that you eat, without stopping or talking (you can make a wish to yourself, though), while facing the "auspicious direction" ('ehou') for that year]
Everyone made their own using their desired ingredients, and then rolled them up...
Non's looked like this~
And this is what Noa-tan had to eat
Noa-san had nattou rolls and salmon rolls
Okay, everybody, let's dig in~
Non-san......munches away!
It was too...too big~~~
But I didn't give up -- I ate the whole thing!
And
then, we all underwent a big transformation
Demons
out~~Good fortune
in~~[note: that is, 'oni wa soto, fuku wa uchi,' which is traditionally chanted during the bean throwing part of Setsubun]
We all had a lot of fun together
Gochisousama deshita~~
