This is not a post for Depeche Mode fans, though the title is the same as a recent single 🙂 No, it’s about a correction from yesterday’s post. Apparently I was right about the eggplant and cucumber being a cow and a horse though I was probably dead wrong regarding it being done by kids.
The eggplant cow and cucumber horse are part of the obon celebration in Japan. They are prepared so that lost ancestors can travel between the afterworld and this world. You can find some more explanation at the Haiku Girl blog.
Though I still think they look like they are made by kids 😉
