This tea cup was used for a tea party that I helped my very dear friend Betty with in her home.
It is just stunning when you see it in person!
This was just some of the goodies that we served!
Betty has one of the most beautiful tea cup collections I have ever seen in person!
This is her dining room, all ready for the party! We served 24 people that day with 2 different sitings. Thanks for having tea with me today! I hope you are already having a wonderful week! Happy Tea~Day!
Hi! I found your blog at the UBP - what a great theme! I love tea, especially black tea. Do you know "Ostfriesentee" (East frisian tea) and how they drink tea in North Germany? It is so delicious"

Tea time etiquette
When you are finished with your tea and food, it's the general consensus that the napkin should be placed to the RIGHT of the plate on the table. IF you need to leave your seat during the tea it is acceptable to place the napkin on your seat until you return.
Looks like a lovely tea party. The teacups and treats look amazing!
ReplyDeleteDonna, what a beautiful cup and saucer. everything looks really lovely, but why 2 sittings?
ReplyDeleteHave a lgreat Teas-day ;o)
