pastel crackers in my hand, I eat the pink ones first
Today is Hinamatsuri, the Doll Festival, also called the peach festival. Families set up displays of dolls and wish for the health and happiness of their daughters.
One of the treats is hina-arare, little puffed rice crackers in pastel colors. Each color feels like it should taste different. Compare them carefully and they taste about the same. People still pick their colors anyway.
Today is a good day. Eat your favorite color first. Whichever color is left at the end is your lucky color.
