Japanese New Year's Day is just like American Christmas Day. All family get together and eat special foods.
These are one of New Year's decoration, Kagamimochi and Shimenawa. We put these on a household Shinto altar or top of the front door.
There is many kind of special food in New Year's holiday. But my family dose not like that so my mother make only few thing. Left picture, she is making Mochi that is rice cake. 
Right picture is Cooked root vegetable and sea weed.
In addition to this, there is Datemaki that is a fish omlet rolled up and cut into thick slices, Zouni that is mochi in the soup.
