I am sure after the afternoon tea extravaganza at Kathy Brown's garden in Stevington last year we both said "Never again!". After the RHS flower show, we said "Never again!" Somehow we have forgotten this and are busy planning a wonderful event for August - A Mad Hatters Tea Party - Kathy has even ordered some Mad Hatter hats from America! With "Eat Me" cakes and "Drink Me" lemonade - I am having a delightful time dreaming up our menu. Playing card biscuits with stained glass hearts and diamonds, popping candy cakes and possibly the little seeding cakes from yesterday - with their edible mud! So what would you serve for a Mad Hatters Tea Party? All suggestions gratefully received! Details of the event will appear here on Kathy's Website at some time soon I am sure - perhaps we will see one or two of you there!!

ohh, that sounds like so much fun Hannah! How about tea sandwiches cut out with playing card shaped cookie cutters (you know spades, diamonds, clovers and hearts) Those would be a really cute addition. My mom has cookie cutters in those shapes so I am sure they would not be all that hard to find.
What a great idea! Do include "Off with their heads" gingerbread men - I'm sure with your artistic skills you'd make them look delicious, not ghoulish!
the only food that is mentioned in the tea party chapter is bread and butter, so you'd better have that.
Cake shaped like a teapot? Or the march hare's big hat?
Mock turtle soup!
