A very nice video and interesting as I have never seen an ordination of a monk, even though I have been married now for 24 years. I am assuming that the monk in white is NOT yet a monk because the women making an offering is touching his fingers. I will ask my wife if female family members are allowed to touch related monks as I have no sense of how the general rules of females not touching monks apply. I continue to enjoy the few cooking tools I purchased from your store. I imagine I will be able to hand down my ladle to my son as it is a very well made tool and should last several life times. I use the steamer strangely enough more for making Cream Brulea than any other use, but it works for steaming taro very well along with all squash.
