Annual Tea
GirlFriends Tea 2009
The Tea Was a Success - Everyone Had A Good Time
The Attendees were charged with bringing a Pink Brooch - WHY PINK? Because they never know the theme until they get to one of my Teas...Pink is the color of universal love - and the Brooch? Well way back when they were created to hold things together (think Roman Men)...so today we are using the Brooch as a Signifier of holding GirlFriends Together; Pink is the Symbol of the Love we have for our GirlFriends. And the Tea Gift this year...a Pink Wrist Watch.. GirlFriends are Timeless/Girlfriends are Right on Time!

Red Halos Annnual Tea 2004 @ HighSocieTea
A Bit Of Tea History
The tradition of High Tea goes back many years to the late 1700's. In England at that time there were two main meals daily, Breakfast and Dinner. Dinner was served very late in the evening, so it was a very long time between meals. The Duchess of Bedford (1788-1861) complained about a "sinking feeling" in the late afternoon.
Afternnon tea was her invention to keep her going until dinner. She would invite friends to join her for tea at 5p.m. Other hostesses quickly copied her idea. Food at tea included such things as thin crustless sandwiches, shrimp or fish pate, toasted breads with jams and regional pastries such as scones and crumpets. The emphasis was on presentation and conversation.
