日乗 diary - 節分(豆まき) Setsubun (The traditional end of winter)

豆まきの

翌日には

鳩が来る

The next day of Setsubun

In the morning

We could see sone dove to eat beans

外に撒いた豆を食べに来たんでしょうか？

ところで、恵方巻も食べました。写真のおむすび(イワコー消しゴムです)は恵方巻の代わりです。恵方巻、と言いますか、海苔巻きの消しゴムも出して貰えたら嬉しいですね！

It’s a true story. I saw some doves came around near my house, they would have eaten beans that I scattered them onto the ground try to take out something wrong(bad luck) from the house. It’s one of the traditional customs in Japan. 

Anyway, I ate some special big rice rolls(Eho-maki) tonight. There are three of Omusubi(Onigiri=rice ball) in the photo. I put them instead of Eho-maki. It’s from IWAKO’s erasers made by IWAKO Company. I wish they could produce Norimaki(Eho-maki) for us in the near future!
