Caramel Afternoon Tea
On 9th November several of the
ladies met to enjoy what was described as a 'Caramel Afternoon Tea'. Lady
Butterfly, Mrs. Bean, Lady Chatterby, Lady Pankhurst and Lady
Lowsborough-Goodby all gathered in the palatial home of Lady
Lowsborough-Goodby, in the al fresco area, to partake of tea, with several
different caramel delights to accompany the beverage.
The steady chatter, and
the tinkle of feminine laughter was, I am sure, heard from half a kilometre
away.Lady Lowsborough-Goodby bemoaned the fact that she needed a man, ( It is so hard to get good
staff lately)
It was wonderful to see the arrival of Lady MacMuck, accompanied
by her beloved manservant, Adamis, later on in the afternoon. Lady MacMuck has
been battling a sore and poisoned foot, and it was thought that she may not
make it to the gathering. Thankfully she is now on the road to recovery.Lady
Butterfly supplied us with her divine caramel slice from her kitchen, and it
didn't last for long.
As the afternoon wore on, several of the ladies went
home, and Lady Butterfly, Lady Chatterby and Lady Lowsborough-Goodby settled
down to sip tea, and eat delicate chip butties with tomato sauce, and watch the
sunset. All in all, it was a rather jolly afternoon, and once the holiday
festivities are over, it is hoped that it can be repeated quite soon.
I love this repartee of our Caramel Afternoon Tea at Lady Lowsborough-Goodby's estate.
ReplyDeleteThe food was a delight for sure and thoroughly enjoyed by all the Ladies ( and Man).
Caramel is a favourite of mine and therefore I think I indulged a little too much but drinking constant cups of tea helped me to digest just a little bit more, lol.
The chip butties were great, along with all the conversation of the afternoon.
