Hikari School--April 21,2014

Really each lesson seems a rare occasion. This time each
attendant made "sakuramochi"cake with steamed rice powder,
sweet bean paste for filling and wrapped with salted sakura
leaf. It looked professional in a package.
After that, followed tea etiquette with tea leaf and orchid petals.

Ikebana--April 8, 2014

Winter is over and finally beautiful sakura season has arrived,
though spring weather is unstable.
And we sense a touch of early summer from the flowers our
teacher selected. They were luteus, little sunflowers, snap dragons
and liatris. Five arrangements were attractively done.
