Zenzai

Jan 3, 2020 - Missionaries were told not to visit people from Jan 1 - 3 so as not to interrupt people's plans of celebrating the New Year.  However, the Mishina's wanted us to come to teach them English on the 3rd.  So we did.  At the end of each lesson, Mrs. Mishina always feed us one of her refreshments that she makes from scratch.  This time it was zenzai, a sweet red bean soup with mochi (rice flour) balls (rice balls are known as yuan in Chinese).  It was yummy.  Since I haven't eaten yuan for many years, it was very satisfying.
