happy new year!
we started ours with a gigantic new year's breakfast at mike's!!





then an amazingly delicious homemade osechi ryori for dinner by kana!

a part of which is ozoni soup, complete with grilled mochi and ikura topping it.

desserts were from choice, including the cow cookies,
for the healthy, happy 2009, the year of the ox (cows!)
