August’s theme was “Fireworks”.

In England, there are a lot of fireworks events at manor houses in summer.

Above the houses we can see fireworks.

Many people pay the entrance fee and enjoy a picnic in the parks in front of the houses.

They can bring any kind of food: regular food eaten at meals, or snacks like cakes. Ice cream, juice, alcohol, and so on.

They eat them while watching the fireworks with their family

The entrance fees are used for charity.

When I lived in England, my family often went to see such fireworks. The atmosphere was really nice. My family loved it. I always remember them when summer comes.

This month I tried to create a special atmosphere, like that of a picnic.

Welcome drink was Amazake which was a sweet drink made from fermented rice with red Japanese basil.

Amazake is called the IV drip to drink because it is high in nutrition.

The menu：

Cinnamon scones

peach tarts

Japanese ginger sandwiches

honey sandwiches

Rose geranium herb tea

spicy rooibos tea

The cinnamon scones are made with coconut sugar and cinnamon, so the color is dark and they are little hard.

We ate them with clotted cream and bananas. It is a good combination.

The base of the peach tarts taste like shortbread biscuit. It is good with peaches.

Japanese ginger sandwiches and honey sandwiches are really new dishes.

Every student was surprised at seeing and eating them.

They all said, “These are delicious”

The drink was an herbal tea made from rose geranium which grow in my garden.

The rose scent was really elegant.

The other tea was spicy rooibos tea. It warms you when you are in a cool room.

It is good for this season.

Hampers were used for the table setting this month. I hope every student enjoyed tea time in an outdoor atmosphere.

I’m grateful to all the students.
