Celebrating St. Patrick's Day!

We celebrated St. Patrick's Day with a festive Afternoon Tea in Sweet Remembrances. The tea began with a Traditional Farmhouse Creamy Coleslaw topped with freshly snipped spring onion, parsley, and basil. Spring is right around the corner and anticipation for fresh herbs from the culinary garden peaks right about now! 




The sandwich platter included a variety of Irish related menu options. Sadly, no photograph of the sandwich plate was taken. These are the cucumber shamrock sandwiches, sprinkled with dill.
Miniature Toasted Reubens
Petite Stuffed Potatoes
Shamrock Cucumber Sandwich with Boursin Cheese
Artichoke Chicken Salad on Buttermilk Bread
Roast Beef with Orange Horseradish Cream on Puff Pastry
Heirloom Brown Bread with Irish Butter 3-Leaf Clover

Wishing you
A green, growing garden,
A good cup of tea,

A day touched by sunshine
And warm memories.

Traditional Irish Buttermilk Scone
Irish Soda Bread with Caraway Seeds
Sweet Cream and Jelly
Fresh Orange and Kiwi Slices

May you always have walls for the winds,
a roof for the rain,
tea beside the fire,
laughter to cheer you,
those you love near you,
and all your heart might desire.

Enchanted Chocolate Mint Truffle
Decorated Shamrock Sugar Cookie
Saint Brendan’s Irish Cream Liqueur & Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

For each petal on the shamrock
This brings a wish your way -
Good health, good luck, and happiness
For today and every day.
