Photo 1 of 3: Annual Osechi Ryori

I grew up with my Obaachan preparing Osechi Ryori, then my mother. I started participating in the food prep slowly and eventually followed the "Osechi Path" my mother set. Our 2 cousins and my brother and his wife helped and contributed some Osechi items, which allowed me to complete the "Osechi Ryori Art Project."
