Which would of course be about 10:08pm.
But it certainly was a Grande Affaire, and guests
(No, we did not make him! He loves and wants to please his sister.)
were clamoring for invitations, to be sure.How it happened:
"I want a tea party!"
"What? Now?" Looks at clock.
Sigh.
Well, in light of All The Things That Must Be Done - it's just as well.
"Okay."
Actually I think it started somewhat earlier with Franklin
being fitted for a Magic Slipper that wouldn't fit. Along with a two year old Princess - Or is she a Queen? - I forget.
But Trevelyn's Lovey Bear sported the footwear splendidly. 
But I digress.....Our Tea Party consisted of Chicken Soup
prepared by World Famous Chefs, of course...and chocolates
and caramel treasures
and Pepperidge Farms Pirouette Mint Chocolate cookies. Er - wafers. And blueberry crumbcake.
And a bit of Brandy for the Queen Mum. (alright, I've never tried Brandy, it was designer beer.)It was a very exciting affair, with lots of sugar (well past the usual allotted time) and lots of cooking and shouting and dancing.
Now it's 11:17
and All Is Well.
Hi Stephanie --
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the window on the Tea Party! My youngest is 14 now, and it's been a while since there was a tea party at our house. It was just lovely seeing yours -- and it did make me think about making some scones!(My husband's aunt in Wales makes the most delicious welshcakes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welsh_cake
I almost got sick eating so many of them when I first tried them.)
Oooo, glitter shoes are the best!
ReplyDeleteAwwww - looks like the best party ever!
ReplyDeleteYou know what? If that's not the sweetest thing I've ever seen then I don't know what is. Your son wearing that hat just warmed my cold, grinch heart!
