Nanakusa-no-sekku / 七種の節句 [Life]
今日は七種(七草)の節句、七種粥を食べる日。
日本の風習の一つですが、唯一小さい頃から好きなメニューです。

Nanakusa-gayu 七種粥
Today is the Nanakusa-no-sekku (=the Festival of Seven Herbs), and we eat nanakusa-gayu (=seven-herb rice porridge). This is one of the long-standing Japanese customs. I like it from childhood. |
体が暖まって最高!
A body warms, and it is the best!
