I love hosting a party and having people over. I love the preparation process; cleaning up, adding little touches like candles in the hall, fresh flowers in the bathroom, and food... I love cooking and eating! Some people get stressed out before they have people over but not me. I put on some music, get out a glass of wine and start on the appetizers or whatever you feel like preparing.
Today I am having a tea party. My boyfriend is out of town so it is a great opportunity to do something girly and not have him scoff at it. Some people laugh at the idea of a tea party but it is a lot of fun! It is an opportunity to get together with friends and be social! So far the menu is as follows:
scones w/jam and devonshire cream
strawberries
goat cheese and pear tartletts
tea of course (served in vintage tea sets of course)
Then I have also asked people to bring a variety of tea and a sweet or savory small dish. This way there will be lots of options and plenty to eat!
