Happy New Year!


<あけましておめでとうございます!>
今年もどうぞよろしくお願いします。

This morning we ate mochi that we bought at the Japanese store yesterday. (Mochi is a Japanese rice cake made of glutinous rice pounded into paste and molded into shape. While also eaten year-round, mochi is a traditional food for the Japanese New Year and is commonly sold and eaten during that time. -from Wikipedia) Dad and Mom also tried it! Dad tried a one bite and said pass. Mom ate one whole one. I don't think too many Americans like mochi. But Jason loves it and ate 5! Jason loves Japanese food.

今朝は、昨日日本のスーパーで買ったお餅をきな粉で食べました。

お義父さんとお義母さんもお餅に初挑戦!
お義父さんは一口でパス、お義母さんは頑張って1個を完食。
お餅はアメリカ人にはあまり受けないようです。
でも私の隣にいるアメリカ人(ジェイソン)は大喜びで5個を完食!
ジェイソンの舌は完全に日本食対応になってきてます(笑)。
