"And there we are! Our tea party menu is complete. We've got, as a sonkea first course, we've got those fine cucumber sandwiches, as well as some creamy egg sandwiches. Then on the second tier we've got those coconut milk scones with some cranberries in there. They got nice and golden, beautiful and flakey. And then, the dainty, little thumbprint cookies, almost like a shortbread but with a hint of lemon, and topped with some raspberry preserves is really delicious. And, for my girlfriend's daughter, who may or may not eat the cucumber based on the day, we've got some kid-friendly peanut butter and banana sandwiches as well. Now, you see I've got just a small tea pot. I've got another one that's heating up in the kitchen because it's kind of nice to have a few different varieties of tea. You can play with some lovely aromatic loose-leaf teas, try the herbal teas, a berry tea, whatever you like. As many different varieties, you can mix and match. There's something about serving anything in a mini-cup, in a little demitasse, which makes it that much more special. So, I'm Marieve Herington with Expert Village and I hope you enjoy your tea party."
