ohigan


Posted by Picasa

At the  equinoctial week, we visit the family graveyard, clean the place, offer  flowers, burn incense and pray. Ancestors spirits come back.

At home, I cooked INARIZUSHI  and BOTAMOCHI.
(BOTAMOCHI  we usually call this ohagi, but , in spring time, this is botakochi......named by  BOTAN 牡丹 flower,(spring time flower)  in autumn, OHAGI、named by  hagi 萩 flower(autumn time flower.)

These are the foods of ohigan.
