Tuesday: Simple tea


A simple tea can be the break which saves the afternoon from total despair. Tea can be most any little nibble you can conjure up. Here is a recipe for my favorite little bits when lunch didn't happen or was never enough to begin with.
First start with the tea.

Heat a pot of filtered water to boiling. Put two tea bags of your choice into the pot which has been prewarmed by the boiling water swirled around in it. Fill the pot, put on the cosie and let steep for five minutes. Pour into special cups. Serve with lemon, sugar, honey and milk so everyone can have it the way they like!

On a plate arrange any of the following:

tiny biscuits filled with whipped cream and strawberry jam
oatmeal digestive biscuits with butter
french toast - with or without jam or syrup. it's my favorite.
assorted cookies
fruit of any sort
little sandwiches made from bread with the crusts removed and chutney and very thinly sliced cheese.
scones. of any sort
pound cake slices
lemon tarts

you get the idea!
