HIGH TEA HOUSEWARMING
I invited some wonderful ladies over for high tea today as a housewarming. I asked that each person bring a plate of high tea goodness and we ended up with a feast!

Last night I finally did something I have always wanted to try.

Ice cubes with flower petals.

I used carnation flowers. So purty!

As everyone arrived, I made lemonade.
Lemon cordial, soda water and fresh lemon slices.

And turned it pink with grenadine!

Using chicken sausages, I made sausage rolls with puff pastry.

I toasted some Melba toasts in the oven with some salami,
cheese and my homemade sundried cherry tomatoes.

I also made some wholemeal cucumber sandwiches.

Here's what my guests brought:

Cupcakes

Hedgehog Slice

Matchsticks with Jam and Cream

Profiteroles with a savoury filling.

These were sooo morish!

Jaffa Cake

Fruit Flan

Croatian Donuts

Sandwiches

Sausage Rolls

Oyster 'Pate'
