Hinamatsuri

3rd of March is a "Princess Day" in Japan where people celebrate their daughters.

We recently lost a family member so we didn't do the whole decoration and stuff but we did have what's called chirashi zushi which literally means scattered sushi (in JP, when there is something in front of sushi it becomes xx zushi with z).

 
 
Those yellow things are called kinshi, literally golden strings, but at our place, because I can't eat the egg whites, they're some kind of a pancake just for the color.
 
I really like these with avocados but we lack the shrimp, salmon roe, sea urchins and most of all Granpa this time.
 
I wish we had pictured the cakes we had after this. They were special Hina matsuri edition cakes and super cute!
 
I wish you will join us someday soon, R.
