Come right in. You're just in time. Although there's been a slight change in plans. We're not staying home. We're taking a little trip but not just yet.
Mr. Rabbit has a special message for Lady Katherine of Lady Katherine Tea Parlor. She is having a birthday on April 5th and she wants everyone to celebrate with her by having a tea party. I'm from Boston so we really know how to throw a tea party (no pun intended).
Earlier in the day, I brought out my best teacups for the party. I thought Lady Katherine could choose her favorite.
Cupcakes and petit fours were supposed to be here, covering this whole plate.
I'm sure my tea rack has the perfect tea for the occasion. There it is can you see it?
It's Harney and Sons Queen Catherine Black Tea. This is absolutely the tea for
the party.
Are paper napkins gauche at a tea party? Not if they're this pretty!
Let's make sure everyone gets a strainer this time. We don't want anyone to have grounds in their cup. Ok, we have the tea but back to the food, where is it? Unfortunately, too many late nights at work and poor planning on my part. Please don't think I'm a horrible person. I have a Plan B, really! I know a fabulous place that will make the day even more special than tea at my house. I called ahead and they're awaiting our arrival.
We'll just hop on that little turquoise boat and we're off to the Island of Martha's Vineyard.

They do such a great job with their presentation. Don't you love those butterfly sandwiches?

Scones, warm from the oven. You can practically smell them from outside.
Finally, a cup of tea. My favorite, Earl Grey. You can keep the lemon curd right there because I am going to load up my scone. Oh, I'm sorry Lady Katherine, you first!
Such pretty decor, I could just sit here all day. But there's lots to see on the Island and the shopping! Fabulous! I'll pay the check and we'll be on our way.
Oh, let's give the butler a tip so we can take his photo.
