This is not a cry for help, mind you. This is an invitation to take part of something special and fun. A chance to fulfill childhood fantasies of the tea party you always wanted attend. A chance to share those fantasies with a little girl. Think summer breezes, lemonade, lace, chintz, and laughter. Think tarts, teapots, dress-up, and playtime.
Do you have a special treat recipes you always wanted to share? Or one you just wanted to try but it's simply too decadent to have in your home? (I love to try new sweet recipes, and then eat all of the results!) One of the things that makes a tea party special is the wide variety of treats we offer to the guests: little cakes, cucumber sandwiches, candies, cupcakes, tiny flaky cookies, chocolate cream trifle, savory salad...the list goes on and on. We think it is more fun to have a lot of platters of different things instead of just one or two choices and the more people offering to supply a platter, the more wonderful, tempting choices there will be!
Not a pot-luck.
This tea party is not a pot-luck. You don't have to bring anything but yourself to attend. Please don't feel any pressure. This is PLAYTIME.
Other ways you can help are:
decorations: we are looking for anything hot pink or teal that has a tea theme.
dress-up clothes: long dresses with lace, ruffles, and puffy sleeves. Think 70's wedding dresses, or 80's prom dresses. Big Hats would be fun too, and of course, summer gloves. Long strings of costume pearls.
