Mother’s Day Tea 2013

For the last few years we’ve had afternoon tea on Mother’s Day.

Last year’s menu included:

Savories:  Pimento cheese sandwiches, chicken salad in mini phyllo cups, cucumber sandwiches, olive and nut sandwiches.

Crumpets with lemon curd and strawberry jam.

Sweets:  Petit fours, Nutella and raspberry jam sandwiches (a refined version of peanut butter and jelly), brownies and white chocolate truffles.

Teas:  We served three different kinds served with cream and rock sugar.  Summer Solstice from the Savannah Tea Room.  It has bits of dried apricots mixed in producing a sweet and familiar flavor.  Also a nice green tea (served in the green pot) and white tea (in the short white pot).

Men enjoy their tea too!
