Day # 15 Homeschool Activity


My friend Robin, who has studied such things, will explain to you that’ high tea’ is not a formal tea. The servants in the household would sit on high stools to have their tea, and thus the name high tea. ‘Afternoon tea’ is the proper term for a formal tea.

Kaylyn proposes you have an afternoon tea. Make scones or tea sandwiches or popovers. Set out your best tea cups, and fill a teapot with hot water. You will want to put a tablecloth on the table, get out cloth napkins, put some fresh flowers on the table, and make it beautiful. Put on some classical music. And enjoy  sippingyour tea!
