Folks..

Sorry about the URL I posted above..to the YouTube video on "mochi pounding".  I made an error in typing.  It now connects to the video

Anyway..again Happy New Year!  BTW: was reprimended by my wife..et al.. that  the "Akema#$%*e Omedito Gozaimasu" (congratulations on the opening of the new year) greeting is to be used only after midnight.  Until then apparently..it should be "Yoi Otoshi Wo! (have a good year).
