Tea with the girls (and Frank)

Yesterday, my friends Lotty, Vienna, Frank and Regina came over for tea. We get together every month for tea, sometimes at someone’s house, and sometimes at a tea house. It’s a way to keep in touch while enjoying a tradition we all grew up with in our different countries.
This time I prepared a simpler menu than usual:

  • Cucumber and butter sandwiches
  • Watercress sandwiches (I wasn’t crazy about these)
  • Chicken salad sandwiches
  • Oatmeal cake
  • Pound cake with fresh strawberries (picked the day before) and cream
    Lotty brought a salad and cookies, and Vienna, Frank and Regina brought cookies and biscotti as well.
    Later they measured my kitchen, to start the process of designing a new one.
    Michaela stayed for tea with us. She wanted to, mostly so she could eat the yummy things we had, but she grew bored pretty quickly. She’s still only 5. She helps me a lot in the kitchen, though 🙂
