A Birthday Holiday Tea

  {Happy Birthday, Mom!}

We revisited  the HighSocietea House for their Holiday Candlelight Tea in early celebration of my mother’s birthday on Saturday.  My mom’s a Christmas baby so she’s pretty much gotten gypped most of her life in the birthday department.  It’s always such a lovely experience when we go there.  Delicious teas, sweets, and savories.  Great conversation and reconnecting. They even had Victorian carolers to get us in the holiday spirit.   I think we may have to make this a yearly tradition.

High SocieTea House

As I mentioned here, this weekend I experienced my first high tea. It was wonderful! We ordered the "Queen's Tea" which included a choice of tea (I choose the Crème Brulee flavor), quiche with soup or salad, amazing cranberry and caramel scones complete with lemon curd and clotted cream, assorted savories/mini sandwiches, sweets, and plated dessert. Needless to say we left with our tummies full. I can't wait for my next visit to the High SocieTea House. As stated on the menu, this teahouse is a place to explore the lost art of human relationships while enjoying the perfect pot of tea.
