Neicy and I had High Tea one afternoon to celebrate my Birthday. I've never had High Tea and it was lovely!
We were able to choose our own pot of tea, a type of scone, and three different tea sandwiches. It might not sound like a lot of food but it IS! Especially when you have a whole pot of tea!

The place was decorated so cute! None of the dishes or tea cups matched, which added to the lovely-ness of the experience.
It was a lovely experience and I can't wait to do it again!
I totally agree about the mismatched cups being part of the charm of it all!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you got to go, Amy! Wow, can;t imagine never having a proper Tea. I try to do it everyday, right when I get home. "High Tea" is a bigger affair as it was meant later, almost in place of dinner, so instead of 4:00 pm or so, it would be more like 5:00 or 6:00 even but always involves more than the normal tea time of bisuits/ cookies or toast and of course tea to drink.
ReplyDeleteI had high tea once when we lived in Germany. One of the other mums from school (who was British)invited me over. It was a lot of fun even though she put milk in my tea and I'm more a of a tea purist.
