I MADE MOCHI!!!! <3

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 23 2007

This Friday for Americas is Black Friday. But in Japan, it is Labor Day.
I have a video of me making mochi, from REAL steamed rice.
But it is too big to upload, SORRY GUYS, i will upload it when i get back to michigan!
I volunteered at a festival and made mochi all day XD

After the rice is pounded and made into mochi (rice cake),
we cover it with flour and make its shape.
The first tries were horrible.
But after some practice, i made really pretty shapes XD
