The first day of 2010

すっかり夜型人間集団になってしまった私たち、11時にテーブルに着き、遅ればせながら、あけましておめでとうございます。

After 10 days of indulgence, we turned into a group of night owls. It was 11 o'clock we finally gathered around the table for a New Year's breakfast.



おせちは、日本食品店で買った伊達巻、かまぼこ、黒豆、かずのこ、酢だこ、栗きんとん、それに空いたスペースを埋めるためすいかにメロン。子どもたちはお年玉をもらって上機嫌。サンタさんからの献金もお年玉も、新しいギターを買うために貯金している息子の弾き初めをこちらでどうぞ。

In the middle of the table is Osechi, which is supposed to be special New Year's food. I bought most of them from the Japanese grocery. Kids received little envelops of New Year's money. Our son has been saving up gift money from Santa and New yea's money for a new guitar. Check out his first performance of this year.
