Ayano Nakamura, left, and Cindy Herrera, a Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni resident, play rock-paper-scissors during a Mochitsuki – rice pounding – event at Tenno Elementary School in Tenno, Japan, April 16, 2016. Commonly eaten during the Japanese New Year and festivals, mochi is made when glutinous rice is soaked, steamed and pounded with a wooden mallet and mortar, forming a sticky, stretchy texture.
