Last night was bunco night. We had a Marti Gras party there and eveytime you rolled a bunco, or 1,2,3 you got to put on beads. Well at the end of the night I had 12 strands of beads. So I brought them home to give to Logan. He's had a good time playing with them. You wouldn't know it by the picture though. He is still being camera shy.

St James Tea
Today Dan and I went to the St James Tea Room. I love that place. I had a couple of gift cards that I was given for my birthday last year and we were waiting until Dan had a day off and the menu looked great so we made reservations and went. The tea was yummy, we had Lady Londonderry (or was it Londonberry?), Black Pearl and a green tea, Garden something, something Garden, I can't remember. We kept joking that we would be kick out of the castle if we had tea with the Queen, Dan almost spilled tea on the crab cakes and we were very clumsy with the sugar cubes.
Here's what was on the menu for the month:
Savories
Deviled Crab Cake
Egg Salad Stuffed Cherry Tomato
Artichoke, Spinach & Brie Cup
Sweet and Spicy Pecans
Traditional Tea Sandwich: Watercress and Cream Cheese Heart
Scones & Bread
Rose Flower and Almond Scone
Traditional Cream Scone with Clotted Cream and Pomegranate-Rose Curd
Sweets
White Chocolate Cup with Lemon Mousse
Champagne Cherry Sorbet & Vanilla Gelato Cup
Queen Victoria's Indulgence

They put the pecans in the little boxes on top.
Here's the best part of tea, though the savories were very good this month. The chocolate heart is what they called Queen Victoria's Indulgence. It was chocolate, with chocolate, with chocolate, topped with chocolate. The cherry sorbet was very good too, Dan didn't really care for it though, it's made with champagne so rightfully so has a champagne taste that Dan didn't really like.
