Accidentally i noticed very interesting thing, walking down the street i noticed cucumber and eggplant near sidewalk, with chopsticks as legs, pretending to be some creatures, after long walk it seemed that there is more of it,
Precisely, this week there is obon which is similar to polish day of the dead, it works as: family puts cucumber and eggplant in front of house, put them legs made of chopsticks – cucumber is meant to be horse and eggplant cos (sometimes you can see horse and cow made of grass), in addition to that eggpland in small pieces on a plate, sometimes rice cookies, some weed and burnt chopsticks, – what’s the purpose, greeting spirits of the dead who according to beliefs visit their families every year.
