I'm sure your guests were so blessed and felt appreciated and cared for.<br /><br />We attended a tea over the weekend, and the hostess went over a few etiquette items before it began. You could do this, too, and delicately explain about the thick slices of bread. :) MrsSMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05059609471160531234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-68564408553737978662017-12-12T07:32:06.986-08:002017-12-12T07:32:06.986-08:00ANOTHER WONDERFUL POST...I love all your posts...t...ANOTHER WONDERFUL POST...I love all your posts...there is something about them that will touch my heart...give me a challenge...make me teary eyed...and some make me happy with memories.

I must say it's very appetizing. The loaf of bread is a work of art!<br /><br />I like the idea of taking a bite of buttered bread, then a morsel of this cheese, a bite of ham, now pop a grape into my mouth, now a morsel of that cheese.

It certainly not miniscule portions of artfully arranged morsels but it is at its finest when providing simple meals of high quality ingredients.<br />A good homemade loaf, some Sharpe tangy cheddar, rich hand carved ham and fruity spicy Justmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05207230260976768202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-52540670666960021892017-12-11T13:01:45.818-08:002017-12-11T13:01:45.818-08:00I do love a pretty teacup.

But I just had to comment when I saw the picture of the recipie used by your granddaughter. I thought I recognized where it came from right away and confirmed it when I pulled the cookbook off my shelf. The recipie comes from the “More With Less Cookbook”; a Mennonite cookbook by Irish Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07269732207035083278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-30008470588845749182017-12-11T06:22:32.069-08:002017-12-11T06:22:32.069-08:00I always enjoy learning something new.
