Made this comic after an afternoon shooting the preparation for and operation of a weekly soup kitchen by Second Harvest Japan in Tokyo's Ueno Park. Starring in this comic is Kosone-san, and I must confess that she told me absolutely nothing about her mother's rice washing techniques ... I made up the entire text (except that the main points about rice washing are all valid).
