ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful tradition! I love it. Might have to come up with something similar. My sister, daughters and I were at the Queen Mary Tea Room in Seattle last Sunday. That was fit for a queen too. Have a wonderful day, I hopped over from Gracious Hospitality and I'm glad I did :0)
ReplyDeleteAs usual you have created a master piece of food. I would love the Ham & Cheese Domino Sandwich recipe.
