It softly illuminates the summer night
The fireflies that give us.
A gentle light drifts in the cool night
I imagined it.

The fireflies flashed with an ethereal light.
The sight of them flying around the water's edge is like a summer night.
One of the most beautiful sights.
A small, lingering ember.
Furthermore, waka poetry from the Heian period,
As a symbol of "passionate love"
It is depicted.
Fireflies have light-emitting organs on their abdomens.
In order to leave descendants, to the best of their ability
Squeezing out energy to make the light flash
To make someone do it.
It can also be written as "火垂" in kanji.
In the past, the water was clean and fireflies swarmed around it.
There were three of them.
Fireflies glowing on the willow trees along the riverbank
When they gather together, a yellowish-green fire burns.
It looked like he was there.
From that ball of flames, small pieces of fire began to fall.
The sight of it spilling out was exactly like "fire
It's literally "drooping."
It originates from the word "firefly".

At the Kita family's shop, four types of traditional Japanese sweets are sold every month.
I'm making (nerikiri) sweets.
Reservations and custom orders are also available.
