Today is Moon Viewing Day, Jugoya, the 15th of the eighth month by the lunar calendar, the traditonal day to admire the full moon and make offerings to to it.One point of this is to enjoy gazing at that bright moon. It's also a kind of harvest festival. We offer Tukimidango, or moon viewing dumplings, newly haversted fruits and crops from fields, and Susuki, or Japanese pampas grass. The previous day, I walked to a field to pick some Japanese pampas grass. I couldn't easily find them, so I had to walk a lot. Finally, I found the pampas grass. Yay!
