An Autumn Tea
Erica Lea on Nov 24th 2008
Last Friday we attended a tea party hosted by the S. family. Take a look at our lovely afternoon…
The Menu
Lunch
Roasted Carrot Soup
Sandwiches
Fruit Salad
Chicken Beggar’s Purses
Dessert
Chocolate Trifle
Date Triangles
Sandies
Pumpkin Kolaches
For lunch our hostesses served Roasted Carrot Soup, garnished with scallops, bacon and sour cream.
The U. family brought Cucumber sandwiches. We provided Spiral sandwiches and Turkey Cranberry sandwiches.
The K. family made Five Ingredient Salad. This is my favorite fruit salad recipe - I’ll have to give you the recipe some time…
Our hostesses also served Chicken Beggar’s Purses - chicken filling inside a won ton wrapper, fried in a thin layer of oil.
After chatting and allowing the food from lunch to “settle”, we had tea.
Along with our tea we had four desserts: (clockwise from top left) Chocolate Trifle, Date Triangles, Sandies and Pumpkin Kolaches.
Thank-you to the S. family for hosting such a delightful tea party.
