We enjoyed three different teas; Creamy Earl Grey, Darjeeling and Barry's Irish Tea along with a large selection of sandwiches; scones with devonshire cream, lemon curd and jams; rosy meringues with vanilla bean whipped cream; millefeuille with orange curd and fresh raspberries and raspberry melting moments. After 3 hours of drinking tea and sampling all the goodies I waddled home.
I am joining Mary at Little Red House for Mosaic Monday.
Be sure to stop in for a visit.
Enjoy the week and
thank you for coming by.

It all looks and sounds so delicious! Three hours of sampling ... sounds like heaven to me! :D :D :D
An afternoon tea party sounds delightful!
Sounds like a lovely time. Sounds like some delicious recipes were made in the class.
Moira's cooking is so delicious. I am so stuffed that my tummy hurts. The Rosy Meringues with Rhubarb sauce were to die for. V
It's been too, too long since I went to a friend's tea party. She did a similar tasting of different teas and wonderful sweets. It was the first time for many of us. I'd only had pretend tea parties until that one.
Wondering what the raspberry melting moments is! It looks like a lot of fun and very delicious!
Sounds like you two had a great time Jen! I can't wait until Moira's next tea that I can attend. Talk about a small world, she's good friends with our daughter's sister-in-law as they all grew up in Harrow.

What a lovely day!
Raspberry Melting Moments are shortbread tarts with raspberry jam in the centres. They melt in your mouth.
How lovely! I always enjoy afternoon tea and lately, my husband has been working at home and enjoying tea with me...even 30 some odd years into a marriage afternoon tea is something different for us.
That sounds like so much fun! I was actually thinking of having a little tea for a few of my neighbors and wondering what I should serve! You've given me some great ideas...and a lovely mosaic, too! ♥
Oh man that was all beautiful. All I can have is Angel Food Cake and maybe some strawberries, not bad. Love the names of the teas. Would like to try the Barry's Irish Tea.

Your mosaic looks so lovely and delicious! ::Jill
Yes, but would you waddle back and do it all over again? ☺ It sounds like so much fun!
This sounds like an adult princess party.Something every little girl dreams of.I love all the fancy china.
Your mosaic is beautiful - it looks like a perfect mosaic of a perfect tea party!!
What a fun cooking class to take! I would love to take one because I adore afternoon tea!
I am visiting from Mosaic Monday.
Sounds like my sort of afternoon. Barry's Irish tea and some raspberry melting moments would have suited me to a tee! Loved the mosaic.
Sounds like a fun way to spend the day. I love the teapot! Thank you for swinging through my blog. There is nothing better than sitting on the porch with a cup of coffee or lemonade. You make the best mosaics! Thank you for the lovely photos. P.S. Love the phrase waddled home.
What a delicious day you had! The teapot is beautiful! Really sounds like a lovely class to take.
Oh.. I think I might just waddle with you!
Have a great week!

Now that sounds like a fun way to spend an afternoon, and would be worth the waddle home!

Sounds wonderful. I just had a cup of tea - no goodies...Now I am hungry just hearing what you had.
Beautiful cup and teapot.

This is so beautiful. Hope to see you at My Dream Canvas
Sounds like a wonderful way to spend an afternoon. Your blog header is beautiful, by the way!

I love afternoon tea, we always stop for a cuppa & a piece of cake around 4.00pm every day here at the Presbytere.
Your Afternoon Tea Party sounds just up my street!
Hehe! You would be the LAST person I would suspect of waddling home, you with a very girlish figure. The food looks yummy and you were smart to take your camera. :)
Oo I LOVE to have tea like this! All the little sweets and finger sandwiches too! That cream is to die for! :-)
Wow, it can be my favorite pastime! ;)
Oh! I just read someone else's post on this class - must have been marvelous - sounds wonderful.

Waddle is right! I love plain meringues so I can only imagine how wonderful those were! What a fun class!
That would have been fun. I guess you didn't feel like much for dinner that night!
