The latest issue of Vogue has a review of a new "magical" restaurant in NYC called Sweetie Pie and the pictures have inspired us to host an over-the-top tea and sweets party for our best girlfriends.On the menu:
The Drinks
Assorted teas from with delicate silk tea bags from Tea Forte. We'll serve the tea using my grandmother's silver tea service with a mix and match collection of English bone china. The tea packaging is so beautiful it can be incorporated right into our decor.
For those who feel like an afternoon cocktail we'll serve Kir Royales - an easy to make drink with one part creme de cassis and five parts champagne - just gently pour the champagne on top of the creme de cassis.
The Eats
Macarons from Paulette, their small round cakes are the next best thing to the original macaroons from La Duree in Paris.
A variety of tiny cakes, mini pastries, petit fours, and chocolate dipped strawberries from Gateaux Bakery in Denver, all served on a tea cart like Sweetie Pie.
And finally, we'll get some to-go orders of the to-die-for cinnamon and powdered sugar donuts from Beatrice & Woodsley on South Broadway and serve them with Marie Belle hot chocolate.
Yum! We can hardly wait for the weekend.
