What a fabulous way to kick off the start of National Hot Tea Month! 9 pm ET is the premiere of the 4th season of Downton Abbey! I am hoping that there won't be any more sadness on the show this season.
No football for me tonight...and I better not be interrupted!
Oh how I love the British-style wait staff servers.
The posh life...dining with others who have impeccable table manners and seated at a table with exquisite place settings. They are so very proper!
I'm patiently awaiting the lovely costume designs.
For those of you who might be having a "Proper tea," this is the correct place setting for taking tea at the dining table. The hostess pours the tea for each guest and serves them individually from the right-hand side. Teacups & saucers are never passed around the table. After all the guest have been served tea, the hostess serves herself and the tea begins.
If you chose to take your tea at the coffee table while viewing the show, this "Low tea" place setting that I featured during last year's premier show would be appropriate.
I have already set up the coffee table for my "Low tea" tonight. I'll be having a decadent chocolate croissant and the "Florence" tea from
Harney and Sons. This a wonderful black tea with nut and chocolate flavors...one my favorite teas. I will also be having a bit of champagne!
Y'all have a wonderful week!
