Description
The serving of Afternoon Tea or Low Tea came with many of our ancestors from England. High Tea usually consists of a meal including meats. The Afternoon Tea would find a lite serving of cakes, scones or finger sandwiches served on Fine Lace and with Silverware.
The reason behind the title "Low Tea" comes from the low tables that they were usually served on in the "Parlor".
No matter where it was served or at what time, I just couldn't remembr to throw the little pinkie out. So I just sit on the back porch and enjoy a glass of good ole Ice Tea. NO SUGAR.
