This comforter set features a soft, chenille embroidery on both the comforter and the two included shams. The combination of a single raised embroidery against the team color coordinated background adds a bit of sophistication to a great choice in a sports fans' room adornment.<a href="http://www.digit-embroidery.com" rel="nofollow">Digit Embroidery</a>  Super cozy and super soft, right down to the embroidered team logos that stand out from the solid background.

It literally means, "I am receiving," using Japanese honorifics. It implies, with respect, that you are receiving (in this case, your meal) from someone or some place higher than yourself. So the gods are implied sometimes, but not in that blunt a fashion, and not always. For instance, say "Itadakimasu" when we take a chocolate candy from our teacher, or a tea sweet while making a visit to a neighbor's house, showing our respect for them as people, not a god. In general in Japan the rule is to be humble. You always try to place yourself lower than the other person (assuming it's not a radical situation like a child or an employee). But society mandates you show respect at all times. So it's important to know that "Itadakimasu" just means "I am receiving (from someone above me)" because it can be used in a wide range of situations.
