Would prefer sources in Petaluma/Cotati/Rohnert Pk/Santa Rosa Area. I settled for frozen Mochi from G and G in Petaluma last New Years- my first New Years in Sonoma County but want something fresh. If all else fails I will have some at my friends later that day on New Years but would love to have some earlier in the day.....Any other sources for Traditional Japanese New Years food?

We had quite a few pounds leftover and I am sure they would be happy to sell you some if you want to drive as far as Sacramento. You might check the Japanese churches and temples in your area to see if they had a mochitsuki today or tomorrow in anticipation of the new year celebration.

Will go to Asiana in Cotati as Melanie Wong suggested last year. Happy New Year dimsumgirl!
