Afternoon Tea anyone?

It's time again!

Last year, I was asked to host a table for Afternoon Tea [HERE] by the organizers of our parish fundraiser.

But this time, it was for two tables since more ladies wanted to join us!

It entailed hauling my stuff from home to the parish center and back, and it was difficult because the tableware requirements of Afternoon Tea for 16 settings are so extensive.

Although it was tiring (for me) hosting the tea, I was more than happy to do it for a good cause.

For the simple Afternoon Tea I brought from home table runner, charger plates, dessert plates, teacups, saucers, small tulip stemware, demitasse teaspoons, small knives, dessert forks, teapots, tea containers, sugar containers, sugar tongs, 3 tier plates, orchids (this time because we used round tables),name placeholders, and favors.

We had

Chicken Salad Sandwiches on a croissant
Tuna Salad Sandwiches
Egg Salad Sandwiches
Cucumber & Cream Cheese Crostini
Caprese Salad Skewers
Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwiches (for the kids)
Lettuce Cups
Scones
Cream Puffs
Pound Cake
Madelines
Assorted Cheesecake Bite
Assorted Cookies
Fresh Strawberries


We had an ample teabag sachet assortment of hand-blended, custom-crafted, fine organic teas and botanicals with good, steeping hot water all throughout the event.

I treated everyone at our table to mimosas. The ladies just love the mimosas! There was lots of conversation going on, and laughter, especially during the raffle.

It was a crowd! The ladies enjoyed themselves and had fun!

As always (lol), my tables were specially mentioned in the event... the best-dressed tables!

That is exactly how I responded, @silvertop!
It is bigger this year, by a fifth... so we used another room of the parish center. I am worried that next year they'd ask me to host three tables, because Jennie asked me last Sunday how many tea settings I had. I said they were in storage, but I that have 30 settings, accumulated through the years.
I might as well host at my home, !LOL

The people of our country drink a lot of tea here. Whether it's cold or hot, the temperature here is 45 degrees Celsius, but they are drinking tea even in that time.

The command hardly picks up when I use it. Weird. I definitely have another today. Any ideas? @silversaver888 ?

Table beautifully dressed, you remind me of a friend who loves to entertain large numbers, always carries it off so well. Normally charity events or parties for an old age home, always brings much laughter and cheer.
