Tea With Carrie

 Another tea!!  HOORAY!!  I LOVE doing tea, especially at a new place!  When I found out Carrie was going to be in town, we decided to do a tea in Old Colorado City - a true BRITISH place!!

The day before I had stopped into Goodwill to peek at the clothes - a favorite pasttime!  Lo and behold I not only found this cute dress below that I was wearing to the tea but also a simple sleeveless black dress - both for only $17!  You just can't beat that and both were in perfect shape!

And I'm off to the tea!


The front part of the tea house is actually a "British" store with all types of groceries from the UK - very interesting!!  The back portion was the tea house - it wasn't very large at all and even though most of the tables were taken, it was still an intimate setting!  A very nice waiter came over and told us about the tea - they only serve one type and it's the most famous over in England!  I was surprised we weren't given a choice as most places have you "pick" your tea - but I was very happy with the tea, even though I'm not a full fledged tea drinker - it was excellent!


The 2 tiered glass plates were full of yummy food - the sandwiches were excellent, the scones (2 different types) were not hard and dry at all (which sometimes is the case) and they were served with a yummy jam and clotted cream!  And the desserts were excellent!  I was so full that I had to bring the cupcake home!


Carrie and I enjoyed drinking our tea, eating the goodies and catching up on life!

It was a wonderful time spent together and I will definitely go back to this place for tea!
