I have a nightly ritual, where I make me a steaming hot cup of tea, get under my blankets, and read for an hour before I go to bed. It is my favorite time of the day. I don’t usually have a cupcake though, although I’m sure I’d eat one if it was available 😂. Of course I always think of Alice in Wonderland and tea time,

Tea Travels!™... A Buffet Tea for Easy EntertainingExcerpt from AFTERNOON TEA - TIPS, TERMS and TRADITIONS by Ellen Easton ©2006-2020 - All Rights ReservedCheck out more of Ellen Easton's Tea Travels™ articles and recipes.Learn about the History of English High Tea and more delicious Afternoon Tea Recipes.It is very simple to have a buffet tea at home.When planning your floral arrangements and decor, be mindful to choose scents that will not cause reactions to your guests. The flowers and decor are meant to complement your tea setting, not overpower the guests, nor interfere with the taste of the foods.While a white linen table cloth with matching 12-inch napkins is traditional, in our contemporary world, it is also appropriate to use whimsical cloths of various materials and designs.Set up opposite ends of the table with the tea cups and saucers, tea spoons, plates, napkins, sugar cubes, milk, and lemon slices.One end of the table will serve the hot tea. If room allows, serve one blend each, decanted, of a black, green or oolong and herbal infusion. By serving the tea decanted, there will be no need for tea strainers or slop bowls to remove the discarded tea leaves. The other end of the table will serve the hot coffee, with sugar cubes and milk/cream. Again, if room allows, offer your guests both regular and decaffeinated coffee.On a side table have a pitcher of cold, brewed iced tea with tall iced tea glasses.In the middle, on one side of the table, have serving trays, each containing a different type of savory and finger sandwich, crusts off.Balance the menu with no two breads or fillings duplicating one another. And for goodness sake, if you live in a southern state, do not forget the deviled egg tray!In the middle, on the other side of the table, have serving trays, each containing a different type of finger/bite size sweets. Lemon pound cake and brownies may be cut into bite-size servings.On either a side table or next to your savory trays, set up baskets of mini, bite-size, scones, muffins and slice-finger style fruit breads. You may also include cheese sticks. Place bowls of clotted cream or Devonshire cream and jam, with small serving spoons, and bowls of large strawberries adjacent to the breads and scones.Place coordinating service pieces next to or near the trays.You may use place cards, on the tables, to identify each item and tea served.Sherry, port, and champagne, if desired, may be served on trays or passed by the wait staff.Remember to keep the menu simple with easy to pick up “finger foods” that do not require utensils.A buffet tea needn’t be expensive, nor time consuming to prepare. There are many marvelous sources available by mail order and in your local supermarkets. All it takes for one to create a beautiful buffet tea party is imagination and a good guest list.TEA TRAVELS™ - Wishing You Happy TEA TRAVELS!™ Tea is the luxury everyone can afford!™ and Good $ense for $uccess are the trademarked property of Ellen Easton/ RED WAGON PRESSEllen Easton, author of Afternoon Tea~Tips, Terms and Traditions (RED WAGON PRESS), a lifestyle and etiquette industry leader, keynote speaker and product spokesperson, is a hospitality, design, and retail consultant whose clients have included The Waldorf=Astoria, Plaza Hotels and Bergdorf Goodman.

When Brits talk about tea, they could be talking about at least three, possibly four, different things. There’s high tea and afternoon tea, as well as the curious cream tea. Do you know how to decipher the language of English tea rituals? “High” is often mistakenly used by non-Brits to mark the most formal tea affair, but high tea is actually more of a simple hearty dinner than a sophisticated sweet spread.
It is no secret that I love tea, but here is what I love most about the beverage.
Peace, happiness and joy is possible during the time I drink my tea.

Today I have a treat for you! I had the pleasure of reviewing the new book Tea with Jane Austen by Pen Vogler; food photographer Stephen Conroy. This book, though little in size, packs a lot of baking for delicious tea time treats. The book was inspired by the novels and letters of Jane Austen. In this 64-page book are recipes for cakes and pastries based on authentic recipes from the Regency era which have been updated for the modern cook. The book has 22 recipes in total in which 6 are from Martha Lloyd's Household Book. Martha Lloyd was Jane Austen's dear friend and lived with her many years penning a collection of recipes called Martha Lloyd's Household Book. Some of the recipes included are English Muffins based on the muffins, served with after-dinner tea in Pride and Prejudice, a Buttered Apple Tart as served by Mr. Woodhouse to Miss Bates in Emma, and Jumbles inspired by the cookies enjoyed by Fanny in Mansfield Park. The original recipes are given along with the modified versions. I chose Jane's Sponge Cake to bake today with tea. The book states that the Oxford English Dictionary noted the first recorded use of the word "sponge cake" is by Jane, writing to her sister Cassandra. The recipe is taken from Martha Lloyd's Household Book. The cake is essentially a pound cake. They are often topped with just a dusting of powdered sugar. Mine came out to perfection. I have actually made two other recipes for the traditional tea time sponge cake and they both flopped. This recipe was a winner. Simply topped with fruit and powdered sugar it was a tea time treat befitting a relaxing afternoon spent reading this little treasure of a cookbook. My teacup reminds me of the Regency era. It is by Grace's Teaware. I thoroughly enjoyed the recipe book. Filled with interesting introductions to each recipe and delightful photography. I really loved the addition of adding the original recipes in their handwritten form. I always love reading historical recipes. I am a history nerd. I highly recommend this book for any tea lover, but if you are also a fan of Jane Austen it is a must read! I know a lot of you tea lovers are also Jane Austen fans, like me. It would make a perfect Mother's Day gift! I wish to thank Sara and Neha for the opportunity to review Tea with Jane Austen by Pen Vogler; published by Ryland Peters & Small, and CICO Books Inc ($14.95). They provided me with a copy of the book. The review and opinions were entirely my own.

This photo was published in 'Picture Post Britain' by Gavin Weightman. The book is about Britiain in the 1930s, 40s and 50s. Everyone who sees this photo seems to think the woman looks like me, my own mother even thought it was me! Sadly there was no information about this photo in the book. Does anyone know more about this lovely lady? Update, thanks to topcat-angel TEA-SY DOES IT: A bedmaker enjoys a cup of tea at Cambridge University, England, 1939
