Roaring Twenties


This past Sunday we celebrated a Roaring Twenties Afternoon Tea. The menu included:

"The Golden Age" Ginger Joy and crackers, Step Back in Time Lemon Caesar Salad, Just Ducky Chicken & Ham Sandwich, Hotsy-Totsy Ham Salad in Corn Muffins, Swanky Herbed Party Sandwiches, Nifty Cheese Bacon Puffs and Ritzy Shrimp Tea Sandwiches. Traditional Cream Scone served with cream and jelly along side Orange Pineapple Ambrosia. Dessert included The Bee's Knees Peanut Butter Cups, Puttin' on the Ritz Chocolate Streusel Bars and All Dolled Up Cream Crunch.

We were pleased to welcome Alice Dupuy as she shared delightful stories about the reckless jubilance of the 1920's.

The food was yummy with Nancy's wonderful scones as a special treat. Alice Dupruy's "personal" narrative of her experiences in the Gatsby days was a treat. Who knew how much fun the socialites had in those days!

I have a wonderful picture of my mother in her flapper hat. What a great time in the century right before the Depression. I wish I could have enjoyed the day with you all.
