I recently participated in a written challenge on WorldAnvil and since they just closed earlier figured I'd post it here too.

  A day celebrated a month after Harvest Day. The knowing of it originates  from after the Detoran Famine was said to had been cured but felt to  have a celebratory creation so soon was tasteless. Detoran families cook  and bake special foods and celebrate. Ornaments are often hung outside  the house in the simple shape of a small child and sun. Prayers for any  who step inside or live there for good fortune  in hopes of never having  to deal with the Detroan Famine.During this time it is when Detoran are  seen especially near mountainous areas to be out in the forest hunting  for “coming of age” ceremonies.

  The most popular dish is Blanket Beef and rice. Blanket Beef is a  filling meal of usually the highest quality beef or game. It consists of  meat,rice and the most common fruit eaten by all Detoran: Cosmos Tree  Fruit. This fruit is a staple and provides  nourishment for babies to  meals and even skin care. It is well rounded in use and often a fave to  use in meals due to it's mildly sweet taste. They are often placed aside  the beef ,sliced and fried much like  Japanese tempura. It also doubles  as a sauce for some.
