Last week, I and my family went to see my
grandmother who lives in Machida. We visit her on January 2nd to greet the New
Year every year. I love eating her dishes of Oshogatsu, especially Kuri-kinton.
She is really good at making it. It is beautiful yellow and tastes so sweet.
After having lunch, we played cards this
year. Though she is age of 80, she is still very clever. So, I am always beaten
by her at the trump game called sevens (shichinarabe).
She is really strong. I lost it this time of cours.
In fact, she does not tell her technics of
both making kurikinton and sevens. She
is so cheerful that she can talk with the stranger as if they were her friends.
But I know her mysterious character like this. I want to know about her and
learn by her many things though it seems to be difficult.
