February 11, 2017: Tea Party at Fort Randolph

A wonderful presentation was attended on February 11, 2017 at Fort Randolph.  Members were treated to a tea party complete with finger sandwiches, such as ribbon, olive, and cucumber, with tea cakes, crumpets, scones, cream puffs, tea, and mint lemonade.  An informative talk was given concerning how a hostess plans a tea, the differences between low tea and high tea, social etiquette for the guests and hostess, tea games, and suitable topics of conversation.  “A Proper Tea is much nicer than a Very Nearly Tea, which is one you forget about afterwards.” (A.A. Milne)
