お正月はエリックと碧南に里帰りしていました。両親も少しずつ歳をとり、正月準備などを交代する必要性を感じました。今まで頑張ってくれた分、今度は私たちが恩返ししていきたいと思います。
写真：甥っ子たちのお節料理の一部。心を込めて作ったけれど、あまり食べてもらえませんでした。こういう伝統料理は子どもには受けないのかもしれません。
Generation transition
Eric and I went to Hekinan to visit my parents during the New Year’s vacation. My parents are getting older and I felt it was necessary for us to take-over tasks, including preparation of the New Year. They worked hard for us for many years and this is our time to work for them in return.
Picture: A part of the traditional New Year’s food for my nephews. I made it with love, but they did not eat much of it. This kind of traditional food may not be very interesting for young children.
