helps my woman usually cook Japanese
food they are trying to make as much as
they can all waxing it may be the huge
amount of like New Year's food and I

web okay okay okay in old days you were
saying before that you used to be able
to win like huge prizes like TV or like

people do it anymore so you just get
like little prizes or maybe like a
little bit of money yeah looking forward
to that yeah man yeah yeah so hard to
work on it yeah they're so busy at the

and one of them is just for New Year's
so just for postcard its address you can
write any planet a message to all our
inferences so if you guys alrighty so
this year we have tofu cheese soba is my
first time hearing about it is so before
but I never really I knew that you eat
soba but I didn't know the name of
anything about it the reason to be
eating it is because noodles in a lot of
Asian cultures it signifies like a long
healthy life because it's long so a long
life so eat it and hopefully you can
live a long later or another year not
Sudan
because soba is pins ma don't be so
greedy so you need to king he's mine so
just as long as you do and how I used a
correct
why you both toppings yeah decorate you
so much things ask you the regions the
console you the Kyoto has been machine
solar which is the machine it's a hairy
a herring fish that's been cooked in
like soy sauce and sugar sugar it's good
of it it sounds like a weird combination
but it's a very traditional Japanese
like sauce which is my favorite Yaba oh

35 to 5 midnight - the morning train is
running you should be this right we did
have some of it yes more than small day
which means to visit the shrine for the
first time that year yeah that's the
reason that they do all make a lot of
people going to visit shrine yeah even
that 1 a.m. 2 a.m. just to enjoy that
okay New York is that it so a full
harmony for health and again thank you
ok so I'm not that familiar to see
I've done it a couple of times before
you get the spoon dude you get a bit of
what are you go left first switch it
over wash your right hand okay
then use a little bit of leftover water
in your hand and then you zip don't
drink it and spit it out don't you spit
it back into the into the clean water
you know I don't get it down into the
rocks below and then you tip it up and
you use the leftover water to wash the
stick and then and never put your lips
to the actual ladle some people try to
drink out of it but that's a big no-no
so we're here at the shrine and they
have a lot of like meteors Eve stuff you
can do here have you done them do your
same thing why it's called tetsu molding
I actually haven't so basically you come
to the shrine and the first thing you
would do is you go and pray and you know
what clean oh yeah you use a five yen
coin their good fortune coins if you
didn't know they're the ones a little
hole in the middle
