March 3rd is Hina-matsuri in Japan, commonly referred to as "Girls' Day" or "Doll Day". We were blessed to have received an elaborate set of Hina dolls last summer which we set up this year in our dining room. Unfortunately, we seemed to be missing a series of dolls and other decorative pieces, but we replaced them with some stuffed toys and a bed sheet to make a fun and eclectic, "localized" version of a traditional custom.
