  1. Botamochi (牡丹餅) feature in a lovely little proverb (ことわざ 'kotowaza').

    'Tana kara botamochi' (棚からぼたもち), lit. 'a botamochi falls down from the shelf'.

    It means to 'receive a windfall' or get 'a lucky break'.

  2. 🌸FOOD FOR THE EQUINOX🍂
    Food plays an important roll at Higan (彼岸).

    On the first and last day of the equinoctial week, rice dumplings (団子 'dango') are offered at the family altar. Rice cakes covered in bean jam (botamochi in spring and ohagi in fall) are presented mid-week.
