Tqsm for the recipes

My mother and I enjoy tea time, nothing traditional like the British as we are American but we usually do afternoon tea when the opportunity arises, typically a single pastry, or sweet/savory item, a cheese, and the tea itself. We both prefer honey in our " hot tea" and 9/10 times I drink Earl Grey. It's not traditional by any means but any time a grown man can make a moment from his busy life to schedule an afternoon tea with his mother...is well worth it. I work an afternoon shift usually until early the next morning so when I get home I almost always have a cup of tea then. A small comfort after a 12-16 hour day

[@imaamericangirl1406]

That’s wonderful. I’m sure your mother appreciates the time you spend with her.

[@user-wr3zq1fz4r]

In England we spread quality butter to prevent soggy sandwiches and it add huge flavor! I Enjoy your recipes!

[@geraldinefields1730]

It's better to cut the cucumber lengthwise thinly. The rounds fall out of the sandwich.

I've loved tea sandwiches ever since my grandmother made them for me as a girl. She taught me so much about life... I miss her.

[@jesswinter]

Hi! Would you be willing to share some of your favorite tea sandwich combinations you learned from her? I’m curious what you favorites are!

[@MsTinkerbelle87]

Omg the chive ribbon 🥹

[@AChicagoWoman]

Perfect! No sweets are needed. These savory bites are my idea of a perfect tea time.

[@SDC1949]

Looks soooo cute👍👍👍 love it👏🏼👌✌️😉🌹

[@spoonfulofsi]

Thank you 🥰

[@deamado8947]

Everything you have there, were my mother's favorites but, she would have skipped the tea and gone for a coffee or bottle of champagne! She was the only person in my Scotch-Irish family, who did not like tea. She would need some chocolates and fresh flowers too! I love adding little mini-quiche Loraines. Buttering the bread does help with preventing sogginess a little bit. Thanks for bringing back a memory!

[@chrystalbrown9600]

Yummy!☕️

It’s adorable

[@lupehgutierrez4650]

You can get French bread sliced long ways. Take crusts off, cut into long rectangle. Spread one side w egg salad or tuna salad, roll up n cut into 1 inch slices to make pin wheels. If you can find a baker that will dye the bread dough various colors for your sandwiches, then you are the Queen of Tea!!!!

[@indigoGoddess7]

Looks awesome! My only issue is that the crusts have to be removed 😂😅I’ve always loved crust! ❤ May I ask, what did you do with your crusts?

[@imaamericangirl1406]

There are so many things you can do with the crusts. I have pulsed them in the food processor or my blender after my food processor broke and used the crumbs in meat balls and meatloaf. Onetime I made stuffed mushrooms and used the crusts in them. Yummm!!!I’ve also nibbled on them with some of the left over spread or with butter and jam. 😅

[@abbie6962]

Wait! You are so underrated!!!! I love your videos! ❤❤❤

Sandwiches for afternoon tea would all, without exception, have butter on them.
