今日は歌舞伎座の顔寄せ。

その前に毎年恒例の佐渡ヶ嶽部屋のお餅つきに行ってきました。

つきたてのお餅はとても美味しいです。

佐渡ヶ嶽親方と琴奨菊関に挟まれると、私は小さく見えます。

We had "kaoyose" today.

Before going to Kabukiza, I had been to Sadogatake Stable to attend ritual "omochi tuki": pounding steamed glutinous rice into a cake, which they do every year to make mochi for new year.

Freshly pounded mochi is irresistibly good.


Take a look at the photo with Sadogatake Stable master and Koto Shogiku.

Don't you think I look small?
