As I mentioned before, this girl loves a good old-fashioned tradition. So when it comes to English afternoon tea, this is no exception. I love the idea of sitting down to a proper tea every afternoon. And if that proper tea could be a "cream tea," even better.
I literally force Chris and his family to take me for an English Cream Tea every time we are back in England, but apparently I never pause long enough to snap a photo before inhaling my scone, because in browsing back through past England photos, I can't find a single photo of our cream tea adventures!
I found this adorable photo so that you can at least get a better visual of my obsession.
Yum! Fresh scones topped with clotted cream and preserves, to be enjoyed with a nice, creamy black tea. Also known as heaven. If you ever visit England, or if you are lucky, an English tea room in your local town, give this delectable treat a try. I promise you won't regret it.
Now, who wants to play "mother?"
