The holiday season has officially kicked off with our annual Holiday Afternoon Tea at Sweet Remembrances held the Friday and Saturday following Thanksgiving. And The Rosemary House was abuzz with activity on Small Business Saturday.
Seasonal tea cozies in colorful reds and greens alongside Christmas teacups set the scene for the holiday. Afternoon Tea featured an Apple Cranberry Salad adorned with red and green apple pieces, craisins, sugared pecans, feta cheese, and dressed with a colorful cranberry dressing. Can you spot the center garnish, a miniature tree cut from a turnip.
The sandwich medley included a Cranberry Pecan Chicken Salad Triangle, a Feta & Pesto Puff Holly Leaf, a warm Apple & Brie Crostini, Baked Spinach and Artichoke Square, Cran-orange Pecan Sandwich on Cinnamon Bread, and a Cucumber & Ranch sandwich topped with a petite tree.
it's beginning to look like Christmas! We welcome December to Sweet Remembrances and The Rosemary House with all the festive flair associated with the month. Holiday teapots are used as decor, colorful poinsettias are tucked here and there, and the culinary Santa collection has returned to the tearoom.
