Hinamatsuri In Japan, March 3rd is the festival day for girls. It is called "Hinamatsuri". It is the day to pray for healthy growth for young girls. We eat some traditional foods and sweets such as "Chirashi sushi" and sweet rice crackers that is called "Hina arare". We decorate a set of dolls. They are dressed in ancient costumes. The dolls look beautiful but also solemn. My mother used to display it when I was a child. However, she have not been displaying for a long time because it takes time to display. The picture that I uploaded is Chirashi sushi. My mother cooked it for today's dinner. It was really delicious.
