SAMS daikazoku (big family)… ugh… an overexaggeration really. Well, maybe in terms of numbers, but in terms of ‘family’-ness, hell that is way true, we’re one big SAMS family - albeit our relational issues. So what does a big happy family do?

Too bad it isn’t summer yet… it was actually raining when we had the soumen. SAMS seems to be having out of season Japanese activities this few weeks^^ Nagashi soumen, as the Japanese like to do in summer, involves flowing white noodles down a shoot of bamboo in ice cold water. You try to catch the flowing noodles with a pair of chopsticks, and what you catch is dunked into a fish-soy-mirin based sauce and eaten.

Before I continue, here’s a webpage on how to have your own nagashi soumen: http://toyohara.com/inaka/somen-e.htm. The effort of cutting the bamboo was… well, a LOT. Thanks to everyone who took time to help and prepare!

Edit: Due to requests, I’ll put up the steps to have your own nagashi soumen party.

Before then, here’s a simple question to keep you guys busy: 2D or 3D?

I’ll be greedy and say I’ll have both and much more
