We are staying here this year, which means I will not have to be tortured with the traditional oseche at the in-laws, which we have to eat morning, noon and night. It does mean I have to go and face battle in the supermarket today...
We spent the WHOLE day cleaning yesterday and you know how much I enjoy cleaning. At least it is done now and I don't have to lift another duster until next year :o)
Right, I need to psyche myself for the battle of the baa-chans and their giant daikons, wish me luck...
Hope you survived the supermarket!
ReplyDeleteI took my family there today and they lost all image of Japanese people as terribly polite.
Oops.
We had a great temaki-sushi dinner though!
Happy New year!
ReplyDeletewe did virtually no cleaning for the 4th year in a row!! we just do the usual housework and I try to do bits throughout the year. we're so lazy these days. It all started when I was pregnant with Little Guy I was too tired.
