Every year my mother, sister, my
daughter and I like to have a “girl’s day out” or a “girl’s weekend”. The last
trip we took was to the Biltmore in North Carolina during the spring time. This
year my sister and her husband came to visit for Thanksgiving so we decided to have
a girl’s afternoon tea at The Ritz Carlton in Buckhead, Georgia. Off we went
the day before Thanksgiving to have our tea.
First our tea of choice was poured.
Mine was the Blackberry Tea.
Then delicate tea sandwiches were
brought out. Just look at the variety of sandwiches to choose from. Each one
was absolutely delicious.
As we savored each bite we talked
about different things and enjoyed the ambiance surrounding us. Even my teenage
daughter was impressed and it takes a lot to a compliment out of her.
As we finished the sandwiches and
more tea was poured by our hostesses, the scones were brought to our table. The scones were served with clotted cream, lemon curd and strawberry
preserves. Yum!
Then last but surely not least, the
delightful little cakes and an assortment of pastries was served. What a
wonderful afternoon tea and memories made to cherish always.
