Today was my first Afternoon Tea in my downstairs tea room.
I think everyone had a nice time and I had lots of
tea time goodies: Lemon Cream Cheese Scones,
3 savories: A Cream Cheese olive - onion Pinwheel, A Cheddar Cheese Ham Scone Sandwich with Hot Pepper Peach and Little Cheese, tomato and spinach Quiches. For sweets I had 3 of those: Raspberry Cheesecake Bars, Chocolate Peppermint Brownies and Pumpkin Cookies with walnuts, craisins and raisins.
Here are some photos:
