Mrs. Miasma and I got ourselves some Halloween treats to eat while we wait by the door to pass out candy to the junior monsters and goblins.

Named after the new era, 'Kajō-gashi' (嘉祥菓子) were a type of sweet eaten each June 16th as a prayer for health. This tradition continued for many centuries.

The tradition of presenting the emperor with sweets for the 'Kashō Celebrations' (嘉祥の祝) was still alive in the Muromachi period.
In the 'Oyudono-no-ue-no-nikki' (御湯殿上日記), a diary kept by the ladies of court, these sweets were known as 'katsū'/'kazū' (かつう/かずう).
