1月1日(日曜日)2023

    去年とはまったく違う暖かな元旦の一日でした。カフェも、帰省で揃ったご家族で多賀大社へ初詣の帰りに寄ってくださる方、休暇で友人同士集まる若者たち、または一人旅を楽しんでいらっしゃる方など、背景はまちまちですが、皆さん穏やかな表情で休憩してくださっていました。

    年越しを一緒にしようと遠くから友人が来てくれたので、おせち料理をちょっと頑張りました。ご近所の高齢の一人暮らしのおば様にもお裾分け。
楽しんでいただけたら嬉しいです。

    It was a warm, peaceful new year's day and completely different from the last one which was a heavy snow day. There were people whose family members got together to celebrate, old school friends also got together on the winter break, or people who seemed to be enjoying traveling alone. They all looked very relaxed and calm. 

    Since I had a friend who came to me from far away to celebrate new year's eve and new year day, I made special food to welcome the new year. I brought these to an old lady who is living alone. Hope she enjoyed them.
