Spend time being refreshed by God's Word with a cup of tea. Relax in a comfy chair that gets some afternoon sun. Reflect on the goodness of life.

Real joy comes not from ease or riches or
from the praise of men, but from doing something worthwhile. Wilfred T. Grenfell

Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him, bless His name. Ps 100:4

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11

Blessings to you and your family. Have

Tea sandwich recipes

Cucumber Mint Tea Sandwich Recipe Recipe Type: Sandwich, Afternoon Tea & High Tea, Poultry Yields: 8 whole sandwiches Prep time: 10 min   Ingredients: 1/2 seedless cucumber, peeled and very thinly sliced (about 32 slices) 1/4 cup loosely packed fresh mint leaves, rinsed, spun dry, and chopped fine 1/4 cup unsalted butter, room temperature 1/4 cup cream cheese, room temperature 16 slices best-quality white bread* Salt to taste * Choose the best-quality white or wheat bread as possible. Never serve end slices. Freezing the bread before cutting and then spreading makes for easier handling. Preparation: Place cucumber slices between layers of paper towels to remove excess moisture. In a small bowl, combine mint, butter, and cream cheese; spread on one side of each slice of bread. Lay cucumber slices onto the buttered side of 8 slices of bread. Sprinkle with salt. Top with the remaining slices of bread, buttered side down. Carefully cut the crusts from each sandwich with a long, sharp knife. Cut the sandwiches in half diagonally and then cut in half again. Decorative shapes can be made with cookie cutters. Yields 8 whole sandwiches or 16 halves or 32 quarters This is a delicious chicken tea sandwich recipe that is always a favorite. Chicken Curry Tea Sandwich Recipe Type: Sandwich, Afternoon Tea & High Tea, Poultry Yields: 8 whole sandwiches Prep time: 10 min   Ingredients: 2 cooked whole chicken breasts, finely chopped 1/4 cup finely-chopped nuts 4 celery stalks, finely chopped Salt to taste Mayonnaise (just enough to moisten) Curry powder or paste to taste 16 slices best-quality white bread* 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature * Choose the best-quality white or wheat bread as possible. Never serve end slices. Freezing the bread before cutting and then spreading makes for easier handling. Preparation: In a large bowl, combine chicken, nuts, celery, salt, and mayonnaise; stir until well blended. Add curry powder or paste (Remember, a little goes a long way with curry - be careful). Spread one side of each piece of bread lightly with butter. Top the buttered side of 8 slices of bread with some of the chicken mixture and top with the remaining bread slices, buttered side down. Carefully cut the crusts from each sandwich with a long, sharp knife. Cut the sandwiches in half diagonally and then cut in half again. Yields 8 whole sandwiches or 16 halves or 32 fourths.     Making Sandwiches Ahead of Time: If you need to make tea sandwiches in advance and need to keep them from drying out, cover them loosely with a sheet of wax paper and then place a damp kitchen towel over the wax paper (never place a damp towel directly on top of the bread because the sandwiches will become soggy). Refrigerate. When ready to serve, remove from refrigerator. Uncover sandwiches just before serving.
