To say that I have the best friends ever would be an understatement...the tea partay girls made turning 30 special and fun. Kimmy - the hostess with the mostest - really outdid herself...again!!!!
In my honor, Kimmy hosted Italian princess tea. The Italian part was the food - all Giada recipes! The menu:
- pea pesto crostini
- fontina cheese crostini
- roasted red pepper soup
- green and white bean salad with fresh herbs and pecorino romano
- vegetable parmesan (red and yellow peppers, fennel, and eggplant)
- chocolate honey almond tart with whipped cream and blackberries
- mini tiramisu cake
- prosecco, prosecco, prosecco (Veneto Region of Italia and Mionetto Spa Valdobbiadene)
- Indigo Tea Co.'s "Celebration Blend" (a fine blend of black tea, orange, cloves, vanilla and rose)
- Mad Hatter Tea Room's Earl Gray Cream (our usual)
The food was fabulous! Many of us had seconds! Nice work Chef Kimmy! You can tell you put a lot of work and love into the food!
The princess portion of the party included little diamonds all over the tables - so cute! Tiaras for all of the partay girls in all different colors - fun! A birthday sash, balloons and cute tiaras on the wall.
