Tea party day! We had pound cake made from freshly ground soft white wheat and eggs from my hens. I made strawberry yogurt, homemade, to go with it, and I must say many thanks to Ysaurella for telling me about Bon Maman preserves. I just stir in a bit of the preserves with my homemade Greek yogurt and VOILA! Delicious, fruity yogurt!
Every week my middle daughter shows us her most recent sketches and occasionally my youngest entertains us by playing the piano. Today, I joined in and sang “Cara Mia, Addio” from (of all things!) the Portal 2 video game, while youngest accompanied! LOL!
Because our food was so sweet I served this tea after we finished eating so the flavors would not compete. This is a nice, smooth green base and the fruit flavors are fresh and so enjoyable. I really need to try this iced as well! This is one of my favorite teas from Nina’s.

Your tea party sounds wonderful :D
We have a lot of fun, Stephanie! My girls look forward to it all week. My middle daughter is attending a local community college for two years before heading off to a university, and I just know what will happen when she can’t be with us for tea time! We may have to switch it to weekends.
happy you liked the strawberry jam Bonne Maman but I am sure your homemade yoghurt did the most of the job :)
I liked their jam so much that I bought strawberry, mixed fruit, fig, blueberry, and cherry! It is delicious in plain yogurt! I don’t add any extra sugar since the preserves are so very sweet.
What a fun day! I miss my childhood family tea parties. This inspires me to have a tea party!
It is so nice that you have tea parties to remember! We didn’t do that when I was a kid, but I have done it with my own children and I hope they remember it fondly. And also, Chelle is the name of the character who is being sung to in the song I did today! :D
:D neat. I have heard some of the original portal music but not portal 2 …. YouTube!
What fun! Thaat sounds like a lovely (and yummy) wayy to spend time together! :-)
