This weekend my Mother and Aunt stopped by for tea and a little visit. On Friday I headed to the antique store and found a few of the cutest flowery teacups, and two double-tiered stands for sweets and sandwiches – major score. The tiered stands are so hard to find! I made sandwiches cut into little crustless triangles, mini quiche, salad, scones with butter and jam, and a custard fruit tart served with mimosas. And tea of course. I can only imagine what a wonderful tradition it must have been to take tea back in the day with all the appropriate silverware and bone china. There really was a utensil or dish for everything! So lovely.
How was your weekend?

Beautiful tea cups, would be so fun to get a huge collection right?! Glad you had a great weekend! I worked an amazing wedding yesterday and am taking a lazy Sunday resting my tired feet and catching up :)
