My church had a special tea for ladies this afternoon. We were encouraged to invite guests as we were having a special speaker Brenda Strohben. There were about 3 dozen of us. 3 gentlemen kept the buffet table refilled and cleared away our plates from the tables. So many good things to eat: chicken salad rounds, jam and cream cheese fingers, cucumber sandwiches, pinwheels, cookies, cheese straws, mini eclairs, scones, fresh fruit. And of course tea (and a foamy punch).
One of the coordinators had china plates and cups and saucers and teapots in a multitude of patterns. She had used them at her wedding. The tables were decorated with pastel cloths with a lace overlay.
The cutest little “favor” sat at each setting.
A frosted cookie made to look like a teabag had a Bible verse that the speaker used in her talk.
I invited one of my neighbors who has been at Grace Village less than 2 months. She appeared to have a good time.
Our church does not have many special events for ladies. This was a memorable one.
