HINAMATSURI

It's Girl's Day today... or Japanese Doll Festival or simply HINAMATSURI in Japanese! Japan celebrate this every year on 3rd of March to pray the happiness and growth of the girls by displaying some ornamental Japanese dolls representing the Emperor and the Empress and their attendants! They offer some sweet snacks and sweet sake in front of the Hina dolls. According to their traditional belief, after the celebration, parents have to put the dolls away as soon as possible because there is a tradition that says if they don't , their girl will not able to marry or will be late to marry.
Oh I see... maybe that's the reason why papie and I kept the HINA doll set late!
Nyahahaha... just a joooke!!!
