Wow, that sounds amazing (and rather deep). I don't know a lot about girls' day, but I have discovered just today (through the wonders of the internet) that what is now considered boys' day in may was originally children's day, but only celebrated boys. Girls' day seems to get called dolls' day a lot, so I think maybe another festival has been taken over for girls since they weren't included in children's day? I'm not sure though. My parents gave me a Murikami diary a couple of years ago and I have kept it just because it lists all the Japanese festivals. So much to find out and it all sounds amazing!<br /><br />As a vegetarian of some 20 years, I do not feel qualified to comment on this post, but I did have a veggie wurst in Munich some years ago and it was a bit like an IKEA veggie hot dog only much better and washed down with a couple of litres of beer :)dropstitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17891710367717242017noreply@blogger.com
