Tea Party - Book Club
Our book club celebrated our latest read with a garden tea party.
Everyone came with their ''Sunday racing'' best. The wonderful dresses & costumes were matched by the great menu - homemade tea sandwiches, scones + clotted cream, tea & Harrod's marmalades/lemon curds.
The book was Michael Ondaatje's family memoir RUNNING IN THE FAMILY.
The book chronicles Ondaatje's Dutch heritage during Ceylon's early 1900s. The book is full of humor and vivid images - highly recommended.
