9/15 Eikaiwa Afternoon Tea at Central Park
This past weekend at Central Park we practiced English conversation while drinking tea and eating sweets at Central Park.
“I couldn’t have asked for a better day” (an expression that I taught in the class) and it was really true! The weather was beautiful. The sun was shining and there was a nice breeze. I could really feel that the Autumn is nearby.

For this event I made three different desserts: mini-apple pie, matcha cookie, and vegan sweet potato drop cookies.
