Today is 8th snow day in February at Tokyo, as is unnormal.
Like days of snow, I should stay at home...
This is normal lunch at homes in Japan...
like curry & rice and clam-chowder-soup.

On February 3rd (or 4th), a traditional event called Setsubun is practiced in Japan.
On this day people practice a ceremony called Mamemaki (bean-throwing) at temples, shrines and at home to expel demons (symbol of misfortune) and invite fortune.

It is very cold and have a 1cm deep snow in Tokyo.
It seems very small amount of snow, but enough to make Tokyo confuse,
because Tokyo is the place which has a rare snow.
