Tea Parties

Emma came to the Eyrie for tea today! We've been debating whether I ought to call my apartment the Dovecote or the Eyrie - it being on the second floor, the name has to be bird related - but I've decided on Eyrie because, well, osprey.

Besides, Dovecote sounds rather more like a cottage, don't you think?

Tea, and lentil soup, and sandwiches with ham or salami and brie. Also clementines - I really liked how they looked, all opened out, like flowers.

Actually they're clementines, not oranges (and I've also heard them called tangerines). They look lovely in the sun.



It's been a week of tea parties: I had one of my cohort come over for Wednesday tea, and tomorrow another girl is coming for pre-opera tea. I ought to make scones for that...the opera is Xerxes, does anyone have any ideas for appropriately themed pastries?
