I have a friend who quite often

cause of her lovely silverware or

that most of her china does not even

because her friends gather for the

would include tea tray, on which
the tea set and napkins are placed,
a table from which to serve the tea,
glistening china, and well-polished
silver.

hostess, pour the tea, asking the
guests to help themselves to cream

larger party and it is necessary for
you to constantly greet your guests
as they arrive, ask one of your
friends to preside at the tea table
for you.
Dainty sandwiches, hot buttered
toast, thin slivers of cinnamon toast
and small English mullins are ap-
propriate to serve with tea. Popu-
lar accompaniment to tea are sand
witches made from nut bread, sliced
very thin, and buttered.
