Heaven Scent

Most people look at our Afternoon Tea for Two deal and check that they've read it correctly:
"So it's two scones AND two pieces of cake?" they say, "and the tea. All for £10?"
Others check for small print: "Which cake am I allowed?" Presumably thinking I have some inferior, teeny tiny cakes hidden in the back which I'll gleefully serve them while cackling.
Groups of four order the tea-for-two special and add two teas, saying that scones AND cake is a lot of food. Especially when the cakes aren't teeny tiny. And when the scones are served with jam and cream.
This afternoon two men ordered Afternoon Tea for Two (Cake: 1 x slice Victoria Sponge, 1 x slice of Anna's Fruit Cake). A few minutes after they'd emptied the tiered cake stand of all the goodies they were back. Two more pieces of cake (carrot).
I think they like cake.
They're welcome anytime.
Another VERY busy lunchtime. Ploughmans and quiche proved especially popular.
We have Evening Primrose flowers open in the conservatory. They look and smell fantastic. Can't remember seeing them last year.
