Taking the time to open our homes to visit with friends is becoming a lost art. I love to meet for coffee or lunch, but something about getting out the good china made tea seem even more special. I need to find a tearoom somewhere around here! I'm glad you have nice memories of tea parties with your mom. You probably would know just what to do to host a nice tea!

I wanted to go to tea when I was visiting Bath a couple of years ago, but ran out of time with all the things I wanted to see. I'm sure it is especially special in England.

So much fun visiting with friends which is becoming more lost in today's busy society. At one time, there was a tea room in our little home town and they were do high tea for their customers or one could reserve a section of the tea room for high tea with family and friend.s Thank you for sharing.

When I go to England with my British hubby we occasionally take afternoon tea in a fancy restaurant and it's a lovely tourist-like thing to do. I love the little sandwiches, especially with watercress, and scones with clotted creme or jam. The tea is always exquisite. But no one among our family or friends there takes the time to indulge in low tea. Dinner for them in later in the evening than it's here in U.S. So glad you enjoyed your afternoon tea with friends.

The menu sounds delicious. I have been to different tearooms in Tennessee and Virginia for high tea, which was wonderful. You've inspired me to think about having some friends in for tea at my house.

When I first moved to Atlanta, there were a couple of old restaurants from the 1940's that were called "tea rooms," but were actually more like Mom's and Pop's type restaurants. I never understood why they were called "tea rooms." However, I do remember when Rich's department store in Atlanta had a tea room, which was a very nice place for lunch.Marilyn Turkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09613157670868692501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4271375082145370896.post-29842109180357328602018-10-21T15:01:54.955-04:002018-10-21T15:01:54.955-04:00Such a quaint practice.
