Happy Valentine's Day Tea - 2015

Happy Valentine's Day! We welcomed many guests to the tea room on Friday and Saturday to celebrate love and friendship with our very special Valentine's Day tea. Once everyone was served their choice of piping hot tea, the Afternoon Tea began.

The first course featured a Sweet & Sassy Salad topped with I Love You Berry Berry Much Fresh Raspberries and Blueberries, Feta Cheese, and Love's Me, Love's Me Not Poppy Seed Dressing. Delicate little heart candies garnished the salad plate.
