High Tea at Home

This week I held a High Tea at home for my husband's Mum as it was her birthday. I really enjoyed putting it all together! We had the following courses:
1) Champagne and strawberries with a selection of finger sandwiches:
- Egg, whole-egg mayo and cucumber
- Smoked salmon, cream cheese and chives
- Ham
- Ham and two mustards (Dijon + Honey Wholegrain)
- Chicken, whole-egg mayo and avocado
- Chicken and Rosella Fruit Chutney
2) Range of teas (English Breakfast, Earl Grey, Russian Caravan, Ceylon Orange Pekoe, Traditional Afternoon) with warm pastries:
- Plain sausage rolls
- Ham and cheese sausage rolls
- Spinach & Ricotta
3) Coffees (French Liaison, Moccona Mild & Decaf) and sparkling water with sweets:
- Scones with Forest Fruit Jam and Whipped Cream
- Plain, berry, mango cheesecake
- Apple slice
- Chocolate caramel slice
- Fruit and custard tarts
It was DELICIOUS and we were all stuffed afterwards! Here are some pics!

Random Kindness Idea

To start off my sweet side of the blogs I am going to tell you about a little plan I have that I am very excited about! I am looking forward to posting a random letter / postcard or two (or three) to someone I don't know just to brighten their day. I have too much time on my hands you say? No, not really, I just choose to spend what very little time I have in really random ways! I know, I could vacuum or mop the floors.. but for some reason this does not spark my interest. Go figure?! Not sure who the letters will go to yet.. or how I'll find the details.. maybe a person from Perth, one from interstate and then maybe an overseas address! Woo! So random letter time it is!! I'll let you know if anyone writes back!
