Tea for three


On Tuesday afternoon I had a lovely friend of mine called Kelly and her Nan over for tea along with the simply beautiful baby Kara. We feasted on home made scones as well as home made Lavender biscuits and Poppy Seed biscuits. My Granny was right tea does indeed taste better from a china cup, what a lovely way to pass away an afternoon with great company, tea, scones and beautiful china...it took me back to my Grannys house in Bulawayo where tea was an afternoon ritual served at the same time every day on a tea trolly. The tea was served sweet and hot no matter the weather and the sound of teaspoons clinking on china was like music to me ears meaning it was time to come inside ffrom playing and wash my hands....my Granny did everything with style!
