That's Happy New Year to all you who aren't in the exclusive club of People Who Know Some Japanese.
I would have loved to share lots of pictures with you of our ridiculously food-heavy, happy Japanese New Year celebration with you. But alas. Our camera decided to break in the middle of our L.A. trip.
Instead, I enthusiastically invite you to partake of two different blog posts covering the events (and foodiliciousness) in detail. Both of these posts involve better photography and food coverage than I could ever provide.
My sister Maryn covers the events in detail (including New Year's Eve) on
Le Cupcakerie.
Michelle (who is practically Japanese, except for the teensy detail that she's Eastern European) gives you sushi porn at
A Mishy's Perspective.
