RASPBERRY SCONES WITH ORANGE CURD..A SPOT OF AFTERNOON TEA

Happy Valentine's Day to you and those you love!
Today's post is a tribute to springtime party ideas..
fabulous florals and table setting...




A flowering touch...
blush toned blooms and white linen



Gilded elegance...
an afternoon tea is a perfect excuse to use your best china
and heirloom silver...
set the mood with a serene tone in mind



Worthy of being served in the finest tea rooms..
a warm glazed raspberry scone



What pairs perfectly with this scone?
Orange Curd and crème fraîche......



Now I would say this is a lovely way to impress the guests
at your next gathering of book club....



We served peach tea this particular afternoon with a tiny pitcher
of sweet cream...



Afternoon tea is what I would categorize as leisure comforts...



If you and your guests are made to feel comfortable,
you are more likely to linger longer and enjoy the day...
it's all about setting the scene and serving good food..
it can play a major role as a lovely backdrop for southern hospitality!
