Since we are now in the Japanese micro-season of Otsukimi, or Harvest Moon-viewing, I swung by my neighborhood wagashi shop for some appropriate treats with which to celebrate. I was not disappointed...these wagashi are almost too cute to eat!
The fluffy, pink marshmallow bunny is for Little TF's after-preschool snack.
The little sugar bunnies and larger moon-with-a-bunny treat are for me to enjoy with my afternoon tea. Notice the bunny/moon/pampas grass combination, which puts this treat firmly in Otsukimi Appreciation territory. Rabbit-themed, moon-viewing treats are popping up everywhere right now, so check your local grocery store's sweets section if you don't have a wagashi shop nearby!
