Yesterday, I had a very small tea party with a close friend.
Tea sandwiches and tea cakes are deceptive; each is so small, it's no more than a couple of bites. So you can proceed very gradually, take a break, sip some tea; and before you know it, the two of you have consumed three platters worth of:
vegetable tikki sandwiches with two chutneys,
open-faced heirloom tomato sandwiches,
cantaloupe with tarragon,
matcha yogurt panna cotta with fraises des bois, mini apricot almond buckles,
mini raspberry yogurt cakes, and
little slices of lemon almond buttermilk loaf, plus
a pot full of masala chai, a pitcher of iced jasmine lemon tea, and two popsicles made from the iced tea.
And it's a lovely way to pass a Sunday afternoon : )
