Satchel gave the mochi a thumbs up. (Jiro was too busy chewing to pose.)

In addition to the fresh made mochi, there were plenty of other mochi dishes to try. I especially liked the mochi with soy sauce, but the classic combo is with red bean paste.

Sekisui was there selling sushi, and there was also a tea ceremony demonstration. The monkeys really liked practicing their kanji, making origami, and discussing Miyazaki movies.

It was a really fun afternoon, and it was great to see so many people learning about Japanese culture.
Liz over at Go With Family has a more in depth account of the festivities. Check it out here!
