not the mad hatter's tea party by summerfield

not the mad hatter's tea party

today, at the office, we had a tea party to celebrate the third year of our diversity program. there were tiny sandwiches, scones, strawberry jam, clotted cream, and petit fours comme dans le photo. i brought these home to photograph them so i have something to offer you. i ate the pink one and it was trés délicieux, of course!

sometimes, i wonder why i pursued other things when i could've become a pastry chef and have my own bakery....nah! i'd be bigger than a bus if i did as i would only end up eating everything i bake.

for the six-word story challenge

also:

i'm hosting the mundane challenge this go-round. mind putting in an entry or two? http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/28509/new-mundane-challenge-pillow
Ils ont très joli. I keep forgetting your mundane challenge. Perhaps tomorrow

Lovely photo. Did you do cream then jamOR jam then cream on the scones though?

You created such a pretty picture, but I wonder what you did with the white one? Saving it for a special occasion, like Friday. :)

@30pics4jackiesdiamond - good question. don't tell Her Majesty but yesterday, i put on a dollop of each on my little plate and soaked the broken up scone like i would a ciabata on olive oil and balsamic. i was careful no one saw me - they were busy listening to the speeches. :-)

@novab - part of my very healthy breakfast this morning. :-)

Excellent presentation. I would have the same problem. If I opened a restaurant or bakery I would eat up all the profits.

They look almost too good to eat! I am looking at this having just eaten some homemade scones with jam and cream. Now realising that I should have taken a photo first. Oh well an excuse to have some more tomorrow :-)
