Se-tsu-bu-n

2005-02-03 | diary
"Out with the demon and in with fortune!"

Today is the day before the calendrical beginning of spring;(Se-tsu-bu-n).

They scatter parched beans to drive out 'evil spirits' and summom 'good luck.'



Recently it also becomes popular to eat vinegared rice rolled in seaweed;(no-ri-ma-ki) without cuttung, turning his face toward the lucky direction of the year .

It is said 'lucky direction' this year is west southwest.

And it is important to eat without saying a word while eating.

I dno't scatter beans every year, but we eat 'norimaki'.

After scattering, I must clean them.

So I don't do that.
