KANJI of 2020

       0 件のコメント  

In Japan, there is one of the event call 'Kanji of the Year'. People are voting one Kanji which represent of this year. 
'Kanji of 2020' was "Mitsu" (密) which people are chosen. The meaning is Dense or Tight and "Mitsu" as used in '3 Cs' 

Well..... then I choose my Kanji of 2020 as "Komoru" which you can find a Kanji on top (籠). 
"Komoru" means 'stay locked up in' or 'retreat'... At least I am staying home most of the time since last March. And wish & hope to get out from home in 2021!

This is one of my favorite Japanese food.  It goes good with rice, veggies, fish, and basically with everything!

Ginger is a typical Asian food and has many benefits. It works with many forms of nausea, especially morning sickness, or it may help with weight loss. (apparently! 😀Check here for more ginger benefits->)
