2014.3.3

It was very cold today.

March 3 is known as hina matsuri (雛祭り) or momo no sekku (桃の節句), that is doll's or girls festival. The family with daughters decorate the dolls called hinaningyo (雛人形).  I decorated the small one of the couple.  Male is called odairi sama (お内裏様) and female is called ohina sama (お雛様).  Sama is suffix of respect.
On this day there are special foods, drink and sweets.  I cooked chirashizushi (ちらし寿司: scattered sushi) and hamaguri no osuimono (ハマグリのお吸い物: clear clam soup with field mustard) for dinner.

At night I went to small ball exercise.  It is just one hour practice but I sweated a lot.
