Oh how elegant and refined it is to spend an autumn afternoon drinking tea and scoffing cake. Ok, so scoffing cake may not be elegant and refined per se, but it is damn good fun, and an excellent time was had by all!
Yesterday we went to a friend's birthday party in London. The birthday girl had done a marvellous spread of sandwiches, scones and cakes, and created a truly 1940s feel - vintage tea cups, bunting, and 1940s music provided the proper afternoon tea atmosphere. It was great to catch up with people, to celebrate a combined birthday and engagement (so therefore much talking about weddings!), and of course, to consume copious amounts of tea and cake, huzzah!
