Tea an Everyday Indulgence
Afternoon tea is back in 2011 and discerning tea drinkers are rediscovering what was once one of the most sociable and popular events of the day.
An account with a nod to the past, when the taste and refinement of the hostess were demonstrated in the way tea was served, with everything as dainty and attractive as possible and the tea itself being the very best that could be afforded.

"Up to the time of Waterloo, teaspoons were adjusted chiefly to the calibre of female mouths."
A quick and easy read, this book features many amusing past customs such as a discussion about which foods may be eaten with one's gloves on!
There are also a few simple recipes featured in the book too, however it is the social customs and courtesies of a bygone age that we most enjoyed reading about.
