Nanakusagayu - Jan. 7th

On the seventh day of new year, we have this Nanakusagayu - Rice Porridge with seven herbs with hope for that one year of good health.

This seventh day is a last day of new year's celebration and because of a weak stomach after enjoying many new year foods and drinks, we have this rice porridge with herbs.

The First Dream in the New Year

The Seven Gods of Fortune (七福神 Shichi Fukujin), sometime called the Seven Lucky Gods,  on Treasury Ship will bring a good fortune in New Year. 

We place this picture under a pillow and expect to see a good dream of fortune (初夢 Hatsu Yume) on a night of January 1.
