The Farm Girls have Tea!

Last Monday my farm girlfriends, Suzanne & Scout came to my home for tea.  Now you have to understand, that I was a tomboy as a child.  Much to my mother’s chagrin I played Cowboys and Indians and would have nothing to do with dolls and tea sets.  So when my friend Scout suggested with get together for tea to celebrate our mutual birthdate at my home I jumped at the opportunity.  Now at the ripe age of 66 I could fulfill my mother’s dream of her daughter having a girly tea party.  So I got out my good china and served tomato basil bisque in pretty tea cups along with a pedestal tray offering feta cheese(which I had made), a vermont made tome (a hard aged goat cheese, an English Weyansdale cheese, walnuts and raisins.  I also offered a Cheddar Bread which I had made that morning and taking center spotlight was the tea.  This particular tea was given to me by my daughter-in-law Julie.  It is a large bud which is put into a glass teapot and then hot water is poured over the tea bud and as it steeps the bud opens into a beautiful flower.  The flavor was a peach infused green tea.  It was perfect!!  This was all set out on my table decorated with pretty napkins and place mats artfully arranged by my friend Suzanne.  And guess what we three ladies talked about while indulging in this feminine ritual…..Tractors, Farming and developing our School to Farm Initiative!!!  What a rip!!!!!  We had the best time!

So on my way to fulfilling my dreams I was able to fulfill one of my mother’s dreams..how special is that…dreamin’..Irene
