A Happy New Year!

Japanese people celebrate the new year for three days. Called "Sanganichi". We used to prepare meals for the upcoming 3 days in advance. We would put good luck foods in box like shaped containers stacked into three layers. We would eat the same foods for the three days. It sounds pretty boring, doesn't it!!! haha, It sure was!

Today is the last day of celebration for the new year! Sorry I couldn't post the card on actual new years day, at least I got it up a few days later! (in "Sanganichi")

We came back from Vermont last night.
We already miss Vermont in many ways.
