March 3 is hina matsuri (ひな祭り), Dolls' Festival or Girls' Festival.
Families with daughters decorate the dolls with traditional kimono costume and peach flowers and wish their healthy growth. Those dolls are called hinaningyo(雛人形).
On this day we eat chirashizushi (ちらし寿司), clear soup of clam, and rice crackers called hina arare (ひなあられ), and drink shirozake (白酒).
March 3 is also the day of ears because of its shape.
Today was the last day of the free promotion of my 19th ebook. To my glad it became No.1 in 5 sections in Japan, two sections in the USA, one section in Germany, and two sections in Spain.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I attended a zoom meeting at night and enjoyed.
