St. Patrick's Day Tea ~ Photo Highlights

-

What a fun tea we had last weekend! To celebrate St. Patrick's Day we hosted our Irish Farmhouse Tea! The room was filled with a festive spirit!

We had a table of 8 ladies who all had birthdays in March! So they came to celebrate and their lively spirits brightened the room! 


Foods ranged from Patty's Ham & Cheese Quiche, to Luck of the Irish Cucumbers...

to Lucky Leprechaun Cakes... 

to Shamrock Shortbread Cookies!


May joy and peace surround you,
Contentment latch your door, 

And happiness be with you now, 
And bless you evermore.



  Our next Special Themed Tea is our Titanic Tea 
which is already sold out! Sorry! 
But be sure to join us for our Mother's Day Tea - May 5th! 
Call today to make your reservation!
