Peach flower........as hina festival is peach flower festival.
Clams ................ perfect pair,
golden pair of clam is my mother bought for me when I married,
When I was small, there were some of my grand mothers,
but I played with that , kept in the toy box, and broke. ....bad girl.
Many years ago, kaiawase (this is kind of the game , similar to concentration.)
was the what bride bring when she married,
Sweets..............hinaarare（usually white and pink colored puffed grain) and hishi mochi（three colored rhomboid shaped mochi)
shirozake ...........white sake.. I don't like it.
instead, I use amazake, or calpis.
