It's the O-chugen (mid-year gift-giving) season now. Have you all sent your O-chugen gifts yet this year?
This year, I gave my uncle and aunt gifts from Ark Tategamori.
My uncle's family is large and lives with his son's family. Since his grandchildren love meat, he chose the "Ginjo-marinated & Salted Koji-marinated Set."<\/p>\n\n\n\n
