皿 Dishes

Tonight's post is really short and quick.

Washing Dishes. Tonight, I got a chance to watch a Japanese friend do the dishes. It was quite interesting. I wondered why we had two cold water faucets and one hot one for each sink in the kitchen. Anyway, he washed the dishes in water from the cold water tap only. After scrubbing them with soap meticulously, he rinsed the dishes with water from the hot water tap. My aunt had mentioned this to me but today was the first day I could confirm it. They really do wash their dishes in cold water. At least one of them does. :)

I want to continue to toy with the Japanese Culture style in relation to religion but I need to be clear about one thing. I am not saying that the Japanese Culture is a religion. I am wondering if it is possibly a substitute for a what is a clearly defined religion.
