先日、京都の茶家半床庵より祇園祭の長刀鉾町の粽と亀廣永の「したたり」を頂戴いたしました

人生で一体何回、京都へ行ったことか

にも関わらず、なぜか祇園祭の開催中に京都へ行ったことがありません

でもやはり京都は風情があって良いですね

粽は早速古いものと掛け替えて、したたりは冷たく冷やしていただきました

門之助🤞

Mrs. Hisada of Hisadake Hanshoan in Kyoto sent us a good luck charm from Gion Festival and a popular seasonal yokan called “Shitatari” they eat in this festival season.

Despite the so many trips to Kyoto, I have never been there during the festival in this season.

But I can feel they have a unique appeal in the charm and the flavor of the sweet.

I took off the old lucky charm and hung the new one on the wall.

And I put “Shitatari” in the refrigerator and enjoyed the refreshingly cold sweet.
