十和田のご縁こけし Matchmaking-dolls from Towada

Description

ハタチ頃のこと、周りの友人達が結婚していく「ブーム」のようなものがあった。当時、私に恋人がいなかったことを気にしたのか、十和田に旅行に行った両親が、突然この「ご縁こけし」をお土産に買ってきた。 「そろそろ考えろよ。」ということなのか… 実のところ、効果は…どうだったんだろう。 捨てたらバチが当たりそうで捨てられない。 When I was around 20 years old, there was a kind of "boom" of my friends around me getting married. Perhaps concerned about me not having a partner at the time, my parents, on a trip to Towada, suddenly bought me this "Matchmaking-dolls" as a souvenir. They were probably thinking, "It's about time you thought about it. I don't know if they were thinking, "It's time to think about it. I don't know how effective it was. But I can't throw it away because I feel like I'll get a bad karma.
