Tea time gives one a great respite from the stresses and busyness of a typical day, and provide a bit of warmth in the cold winter. Dressing the tea table up and playing with my dishes for holidays make it even more of a pleasure!
Tea for three with Old Country Roses
There are two teapots on the table for my guests.
A heart-shaped box of candy graces each place setting.
A two-tiered tray of goodies
I made heart-shaped butterscotch scones. The recipe can be found
here; I omitted the ginger.
I served the scones with strawberry jelly and butter in vintage glass dishes.
Mini cherry cheesecakes - a vanilla wafer on the bottom - a cream cheese/sugar/cool whip mixture in the middle and a little cherry pie filling on top - the recipe can be found
here.
Several teas to choose from -
I'm closing with a close-up of my Old Country Roses teapot. This is different from the OCR teapot one usually sees. I rather like it.
