The 49th Kaga Yuzen New Work Competition
Kaga Yuzen Supreme Prize: Furisode "Yuzuriha" by Yukiko Tagami
Yuzuriha was used as a motif. It is used for decorations of Kagamimochi ( two-round piled up rice cakes) and shime-kazari (decoration of sacred rice-straw rope).
The characteristic of the old leaves taking turns (yuzuriha) for the sprouting of the new leaves, the design is associated with the wish that good fortune will be passed on from generation to generation.

I realized that with the holidays around the corner, Japan doesn't see chistmas the same way so if I was ever kidnapped by any modern day anime characters, I'm kinda screwed. Like sure the richer or more thoughtful ones will try their best but it's not like a fully recognized holiday with like a two week vacation and all that, so winter fun will basically get squeezed into whatever is possible
I can imagine a Japanese yandere trying to convince Darling that New Year's is a better time for a long vacation, since it has more importance than Christmas. And the richer ones are so eager to pull out all the stops: ringing the bells and doing the first temple visit of the year, a kagamimochi decoration and a shimekazari on the door (and "helping" them place it while putting hands on them and explaining it), and a kimono custom-sized for them 💖

Happy 1-11!! My lil year of the dragon kagamimochi has been sitting in my new year's doorway shrine since just after christmas, so the day finally came to crack him open. I was surprised to see, too, that there was actually a WHOLE kagamimochi inside, and not prepackaged pieces like you generally find in these. It's bad luck to cut kagamimochi with a knife, and finding a whole hard-but-still-slightly-moist mochi inside presented some hammer-proof logistical problems (ever seen a metal hammer just bounce uselessly off food? Because I did today lol). Ultimately I decided pushing through with a plastic spatula between the cakes had to be safe and finally was able to break it into useable pieces. 😂
Hokkaido beans (as you do), but also Okinawan raw sugar lumps also went into this which was pretty neat, so top to bottom Japan represented. The sugar had a very high and rich molasses content, so if you, too, are wanting to make sweet bean soup, I think dark brown sugar would be a reasonable substitute.
Still, happy to see this conclusion to the new year's festivities thus far, until the Lunar New Year. My lil dragon guy has 2024 stamped on the bottom, so there's no forgetting!🐉
A happy and very lucky new year to you all, however you celebrate. 💖
