Today, Friday 4th of December, Maiko Kikushino performed her first tea ceremony for Okaasan Kikuyu and her okiya sisters. This means that soon she will be entering her saninmae rank or, in other words, soon Hanafusa okiya will celebrate Kikushino chan becoming Senior Maiko.
Omedetou san dosu!
“Meanwhile, let us have a sip of tea. The afternoon glow is brightening the bamboos, the fountains are bubbling with delight, the soughing of the pines is heard in our kettle. Let us dream of evanescence and linger in the beautiful foolishness of things.” (Okakura Kakuzō)
