[DIY] Tea Party Time ~

  Lately, I've been really enjoying being part of DIY projects - mainly as a guest.  I have so many creative and talented friends, who cook up storms of delicious food for my (and other's) liking.  A few months ago (yes, I guess I haven't written in a while...), a friend of mine invited me to an event at her church, an event that any girl would really love to go to because its theme was "High Tea"! It was held at a church hall, so I have to say my expectations were not so high... but boy oh boy, was I beyond wrong... going to this tea party made me realise just how far creativity could go if the person/group of people put their hearts into it!


  I won't blabbed on any more, I'll let the photos speak for this! 
I wanted to take them home so badly! >.<

Lovely!



  The desserts were all home-cooked by the girls who organised the high tea! They were absolutely delicious, ranging from chocolate dipped strawberris, panna cotta, lemony pastries to my absolute favourite of the day - strawberry cheesecake with a "twist" ;) (There was a special ingredient in there that made it unique and such an experience to the palate...mmmm)


  There was a selection of savoury food as well... assorted sandwiches filled with absolute freshness with a variety of scones and mini pies... not to mention dumplings on spoons and meatballs in paper boats... made my senses tingle!


  I was particularly impressed by the presentation of the whole event... the cups were so fine looking that it made the whole drinking tea experience even more pleasant.  Plus being a lover of flowers, all the little jars of blossoming flowers around the room just made me smile! :)

Cannot resist any longer! I'll start first! Haha

  Going to events like this where people make their own food and their own decorations is so much fun, I always feel a lot more homey and warm in those environments... and extra impressed by all the talents that everyone display! Also, I feel extremely loved to be spoilt like this by food and surrounded by beautiful settings hehe

  Definitely really appreciate the hard work and effort everyone has put in that day... to the point where I still think about it now and am amazed!

  So, maybe if you want to do something special for a group of beloved people in your life and you have such talents, why not host a tea party like this? It'll definitely be a memorable moment for everyone that comes :)
