Miura san sent his New Year greetings to my family with a few pictures taken in Sendai during the eve and New Year day of twenty ten.. 
A snowstorm just before dusk.
On the morning of the New Year, a blanket of snow covered his car and family home. 
The Japanese celebrate New Year's Day on January 1 each year. It is one of the most important annual festival celebrated for centuries with unique customs. On New Year day, the Japanese people used to eat a special selection of dishes called osechi-ryori (New Year dishes) 御節料理, normally consisting of boiled seaweed, fish cakes, mashed sweet potato with chestnut , simmered burdock root, sweetened black soybeans and many others. It is believed that each dish in the osechi has a meaning, like good health, good harvest, happiness, long life, and so on. 
The "osechi-ryori" (御節料理) of Miura san's family
It was a good feast. I wish I was there to enjoy them. Again, I wish every one "HAPPY NEW YEAR!" To all my Japanese friends, " 新年おめでとうございます. 今年もよろしくお願いします!"
