"Another novelty is the tea-party,
an extraordinary meal in that,
being offered to persons that have
already dined well, it supposes
neither appetite nor thirst, and
has no object but distraction,
no basis but delicate enjoyment."
~ Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin. The Physiology of Taste.
May you have moments of "delicate enjoyment" with
a cup of tea and a sweet this holiday season.
What would be in your cup?
And on your plate?
