What's in my obento this week?
Stir-fry Ginger Pork, Bittergourd & Egg with Rice.
In Japanese folklore {月の兔, Tsuki no Usagi}, a beggar once asked some animals for food.
The rabbit was so kind that it offered to cook itself for the beggar to eat.
The beggar turned out to be a deity and to reward the rabbit for its virtuous spirit,
he brought brought it up to the moon to live forever.
Remember to spread cheer & charity this holiday season!! :)
