What a fantastic afternoon with 44 young ladies having etiquette and tea with me this past Saturday .It was as rewarding for them as it was for me.
All dressed up, and ready to host the Young Ladies Tea Party at the Gov Lippit House, which is now an elegant museum .. This beautiful and elegant mansion was
constructed for him and his family back in 1863. This home is full of life and
history . The house stayed in the family for four generations
My dear friends dropped off the mini scones,
that will compliment the Tea Party. Chief Shawn prepared the delightful finger sandwiches and tea was served my grand daughters and a friend.
It was a huge success. This was a wonderful beginning of Spring Teas!
My Up-Coming Event
This is a wonderful opportunity for young girls of any color!
Join me!
