Tea Outing for Clarke County Mom's Group

-
This past Friday evening we hosted a little tea outing for the Mom's of the Clarke County Mom's Group. Upon arrival, the ladies went through the many vintage hats available, and all found one appropriate for the attire or mood.


The guests enjoyed a delicious four course tea...



Fresh Garden Salad with Strawberries and Mandarin Oranges topped with Sugar Coated Nuts and a home made Vinaigrette Dressing



Savory Rosemary Chicken Salad in Croissant
Lavender Egg Salad on Marbled Rye
Tomato Basil Tarts
Country Cucumber Sandwiches



Creme Scones with jelly, curd and cream



English Tea Cakes
Brownie Bites
Sugar Cookies



Fragrant Teas



As the evening began to wind down, we shared with them a very humorous book on being a mom..."Five Minutes Peace" by Jill Murphy...all of the mom's could relate to this cute little tale. It was a lovely evening, despite the thunderstorm!!


Thank you Clarke County Mom's for allowing Miss Spenser's an opportunity to pamper you for the evening!

"We wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!" Mom was the first to get this set of “Cup of Christmas Tea” teacup and teapot. She received them many years ago by a friend in California, Dayna Esquivel. When we moved out here to the country, Mom and I began enjoying tea together in the afternoons. That Christmas Mom found another set of “Christmas Tea” teacups and teapot and purchased them for me! We always get these teacups out at Christmas and sip tea out of them on a regular basis.
