		<title>girl&#8217;s day nabemono (hot pot) 雛祭りの鍋物</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Okay, I lied a little&#8230; this nabemono (Japanese hot pot) was made on Girl&#8217;s Day (Hina-matsuri), but that&#8217;s really the only thing about it that makes it a &#8220;Girl&#8217;s Day nabemono&#8221;. It was still very delicious!
