Pots of steaming hot tea were served as guests were seated. The choices were many, the most popular is always Blue Lady, a strawberry, kiwi, and coconut blend, available at The Rosemary House naturally. The first course included French Style Cheese Spread piped in the shape of a large rose and served with assorted crackers. A heart shaped bowl bursting with Fresh Fruit and Sweet Cream was served next.
The selection of five sandwiches included Swiss Apple Melt on Toasted Baguette Slices, Roast Beef & Honey Mustard on Mini Herb Biscuits, Blue Cheese, Walnut & Pear Sandwich, Chicken Waldorf Sandwich, May Flower Sandwich circled around a Mascarpone Topped Strawberry.
The next course featured oven fresh scones - a heart shaped Kensington Palace Scone and a triangular Apple Cinnamon Scone accompanied with Imported Devon Cream, Pecan Honey Butter, Orange Marmalade, and Fresh Orange Slices.
The final course, desserts, included a Rosewater Cookie with an Impatiens Blossom, Chocolate Chocolate Cheesecake, and Phyllo Cups with Almond Cream & Strawberries.
Thank you to all those in attendance yesterday!
It was our honor to treat you like a Queen for the Day!
God Bless The Queen!

I love the photos of the food! Everything looks delicious and colorful.
All your tea foods look fabulous. What a well thought out menu. Oh, how I wish I could be a regular at your tea room. Have you published a cookbook?
It was a wonderful afternoon with a thoughtful, tasty menu that took one to jolly ole England for a brief time. This was England's week at Sweet Remembrances with a Shakespeare and Herbs tea party on Tuesday night. jp
What a lovely tea. I was particularly intrigued by your Rosewater Cookie. I have some rosewater that I need to use in something. I will check your recipe book and see if it is there.
