“Come along inside… We’ll see if tea and buns can make the world a better place.”

Welcome! It's not snowing outside, but neither is it raining, and it's crisp and cold out there, which makes it a perfect time for a tea party. (Although any time is Tea Time, really.)

Mmmmmm, tea! Over here thanks to petzipellepingo's mention. I had the good fortune to not only visit the above mentioned Fortnum & Mason's in October (it's undoubtedly my idea of heaven!), but I had the loveliest cream tea in a small tea room in Stratford on Avon. So simple and delicious and oh, I so miss the luscious clotted cream!! You just can't get the same stuff here in the states

Welcome, welcome! I'm glad you could stop by!

I know what you mean about true clotted cream; I was in Somerset for too short a time a few years ago, and nothing in Canada seems to compare to what I had there. (And, of course, that's to say nothing of clotted cream fudge. Yum.)

I do think that a scone that requires great gobs of jam and butter and cream is precisely the kind of scone we should all know how to make! I'm delighted that you stopped by to share this, and now I'll have to try it!

(I know that this isn't a tea icon, but David Tennant seemed appropriate...)
