In the previous chapter, Anne was thrilled to receive her first formal invitation to tea, which she considered a grand and sophisticated event. Despite her excitement, the outing didn’t go entirely as planned—she wore a dress she later realized was less than ideal, and a misunderstanding over the tea set left her mortified. However, Anne’s charm and quick wit helped her recover, and she left the gathering with a renewed sense of belonging in Avonlea. Now, in this chapter, we’ll see Anne’s unyielding sense of pride and imagination lead her into yet another scrape, one that tests her resolve and teaches her an unexpected lesson about honor.

Anne of Green Gables pt. 22
Tonight, we’ll read the 22nd chapter of “Anne of Green Gables”, the classic 1908 novel by Lucy Maud Montgomery. This chapter is titled “Anne is Invited Out to Tea”
In the previous chapter, Anne is excited about the new minister and his wife Mrs. Allan, who she decides is a kindred spirit. Marilla invites the Allans to tea and Anne is allowed to bake a cake. Anne flavors the cake with what she thinks is vanilla, but ends up being Anodyne Liniment. Although Anne assumes the worst and becomes bereft, Mrs. Allan kindly forgives the mistake.
Anodyne Liniment was a topical pain reliever, not meant for consumption, let alone the flavoring of a cake. Ingredients may have included menthol, camphor and possibly turpentine, which would have created a bitter, medicinal and unpleasant flavor.
