An Invitation to Tea!
 |
Welcome to Tea Time Treats, a monthly blogging and baking event that is hosted by Karen from Lavender and Lovage and little old me on alternate months.
This monthly challenge covers one of our most delightful and eternally popular British institutions, Tea Time! Not just cakes and scones either, but pies and more filling supper dishes come under this culinary umbrella, from afternoon teas of delicate and elegant bakes to the more rustic and filling pleasures of high tea and farmhouse suppers.
All teatime treats, whether sweet or savoury, breads, scones, sandwiches, pies, pasties, cakes, tarts, desserts, conserves or biscuits (plus many, many more!) will be featured over the coming months.
Each monthly challenge will suggest and involve a certain style of bake or popular teatime ingredient. We'll be following the seasons with an eye on many popular feasts and festivals throughout the year.
