Had an informal tearoom for neighbours - we spend so much time living our lives and in the winter hibernating it was great to catch up with 6 of my neighbours. Yes, we have that many inhabitants!

In such a small community its good make the effort and reaffirm our connections.

Menu included Carrot & Courgette mini muffins, Caramelised shallot & blue cheese tartlets, Lemon Cupcakes & Chocolate brownies.

 

Interesting conversations by the guests today. Experience and accuracy of clairvoyants a popular topic. Much laughter. O & E very well behaved, though E stole O's rawhide chew and O spent the few hours looking very fed up.

I am looking forward to welcoming 3 good friends and their guests to my tearoom on Friday.  My homemade Elderflower cordial is receiving many appreciative comments, although obtaining the citric acid has been something of a challenge!

Fingers crossed that O & E (the dogs) will again behave themselves - E especially cannot be trusted where food is concerned!

We all had a great time, the sun came out, the dogs behaved themselves and everyone enjoyed each others company. Carol Burns from The Nottinghamshire Today magazine attended and there will be a feature on my tearoom in July's edition. Very exciting!
