Tea time Cont.

On Wednesday Ben took a day off work so Ella and I could get a little mother daughter time. It's been hard to connect to oldest since Lily has entered the picture and I've been wanting to go to this tea house in Pleasanton ever since we moved here. I couldn't wait till Ella got old enough so I could take her. She was really excited for it. We both got dressed up in our fanciest tea attire.

Now for the menu... Ella had a strawberry kiwi tea with a splash of lemonade , peanut butter and fluff sandwhich served with an orange cookie,strawberry cream puff , dried fruit and nut and a warm scone with preserves ,lemon curd and clotted butter. She was pretty high on sugar!
I had an assortment of tea sandwhiches , egg salad served in a phyllo cup, chicken salad,cream cheese and cucumber and carrot and zucchini cream cheese served on date bread. Soo yummy. Plus the scone and dried fruit and nuts with a pot of lavender lace tea.

Ella really got into the experience. Notice her pinkie up while she is drinking from her tea cup. Afterwards we walked around downtown Pleasanton and did a little shopping. It was the perfect day. Not to mention easy since I only had one child! Hopefully this will be a tradition for us girls no matter where we live.
