October was really warm and we could go around pumpkin lit houses confortably without thick underwear.
If you didn't see cafe an-an witches in action, here are some photos.
Thanks BOO for those lovely photos.
Pumpkin Tarts and spooky cupcakes were popular. Eye ball Yokan (white bean jelly in Green tea or Chocolate flavor) was also well received.
Unfortunately, this year's Halloween was on Saturday, so I could not open the cafe, but Next Halloween will be on Monday... I cannot help thinking about what to do next year!
This warm autumn brought tasty British Strawberries till quite late, but it has run out now.
...so, here comes chestnuts season!!!
I was going to put the photo of Chestnuts cake at the top of this blogg, but I coudnot find the photo. ...I haven't taken photo of my sweets properly for long time.
I need to make time for that very soon. I need to make some more effort to advertise an-an's sweets!!!
