Afternoon Tea Party

Tea rooms are hidden gems you won't find at a busy mall or on street corners. They are usually located in old Victorian homes or perhaps a Bed and Breakfast or Premier Hotel. Tea rooms are decorated with charm using fine white linen tablecloths, lace napkins and porcelain tea pots. Fresh flowers adorn each table and each place setting glistens with polished flatware. These quaint rooms offer an escape from the busy world around us, a day of tranquility and opportunity to spend a peaceful afternoon with family and friends.

Today tea rooms are more mainstream American style usually serving a main entrée, tea and dessert and served with all the elegance and charm tea rooms are known for.

I hope you relish all the delectable recipes in this book not just for afternoon tea, but for any special occasion you may be entertaining.
