offering box

Mr. Yoshiki Akimura.
I haven't had the heart to write anything about food as I found out about the sudden and inexplicable death yesterday of a close friend and colleague for many years. Apparent heart attack. He was only 51, and had no signs of ill health at all. He had unwavering integrity and anyone would be lucky to count him as a friend.

The above photo is of a Shinto offering box that sits at the place prayers are offered.

Anna, So sorry to hear about your friend. That really is young, and, I'm sure a shock. Sending you a virtual hug.
