Our little lady had her first official tea party on Sunday. She was dressed in her best little tea suit with starched collar, matching booties, and striking red chapeau (until she lost one of the booties and the hat fell off about two minutes after coming in the door.) But Claire couldn't have been more elegant and charming during the entire two hour affair. She knew exactly which piece of silverware to use for each course and only belched twice. She even waited quite serenely until after the check came for Mommy to change her unmentionables. She watched very closely to observe all of the proper etiquette and subtle nuances of the tea ritual. Next time, she insists on serving the tea herself.
Mommy, does Aunty Kristin take cream or sugar with her tea? One lump or two?
