Description
Heirloom Tea Time by Kathy K. McClellan is an image created for Day One of Challenge 25 (Theme: Tea & Cake).
Grandmother's china and Mother's handkerchief combine to form a memory filled image of Tea Time.
Although the Chinese are believed to be the first to drink tea, the English have made a ritual of tea drinking.
Late afternoon or early evening are considered the best time of day to relax with a cup of tea and small sandwiches, bread and jam, cake or other pastries.
High tea and Low tea are terms used depending on several attributes including the height of the table holding the food and beverage, the geographical location in The British Isles, the class of society partaking of the tea and the time of day (afternoon or evening).
Using fine china or heirloom pieces when serving tea can create a fancy or formal event.
