March 11, 2006Omedeto Gozaimasu !  Happy Anniversary to Paris daily photo. Here is a treat for you, typical japanese afternoon tea. Times have change and there are many kinds of snacks now , this is the original..., they call this kind of snack "wagashi ". I think the "wa" is for really japanese , "yo " is for things , food that has foreign origin. This cute delicacy has its own name ( forgot to write it down). Made from a special variety of rice and inside it is sweetened mashed beans. No machine is used, each is diligently made by a shokunin ( artisan ). It is sweet so it is best paired with green tea. At first I could'nt get myself to bite wagashi because it's so beautiful. So Eric, douzo tabete kudasai ! (pls. eat ) And more anniversaries to come!! ・midnitebara
