It’s tea time!!! We actually really enjoyed tea (which was new for me) and it was so fun. A group of seven of us had tea at Harrods and felt very fancy while doing so. When you do an afternoon tea, it’s very proper and there’s always something going on. In The Importance of Being Earnest, I feel like they’re always eating because, if you’re not eating, you’re talking. That’s what tea feels like. Someone is telling a story while you’re eating and then you tell a story so they can eat. It’s a great way to make sure everyone has a chance to talk but, it’s also a lot to take in. It was very refined but, it was also a department store. That means it was kind of loud and there was a lot going on. Four of the girls thought it would be fun to get dressed up and take an afternoon tea. The boys got jealous (of course) and decided to tag along. We put on our southern best and headed to tuck in to tea and crumpets. I actually had crumpets and they’re really yummy but, a lot denser than I thought they would be. Tea is actually very filling. I left the tea shop filled to the brim of delicious treats and my flavorful mint tea. We didn’t order cucumber sandwiches (I don’t like cucumber) but, we all tried something new and had a great time bonding together on this journey. It was so much fun meeting people outside of the department and see their take on what we do. Tea time brings everyone together. I think that’s why it’s still a common thing to do in England. It’s time in the middle of the day for people to come together with friends to enjoy each other’s company. In Earnest, it’s more to judge people and see what they’re all about but, the idea came from somewhere right? The pictures are at Harrods. Terrance likes tea and crumpets.
