Cucumber Sandwiches

Denise held a lovely tea party for us girls.  It was an afternoon to remember.  The sunshine was peaking through the clouds to give us a glimmer of light as we sat around the table.  Little girls in their dresses.  Mothers and daughters.  A special set time to purposely and intentionally and fancifully gather and enjoy together.

Beautiful flowers.  Colorful dishes.  Sightings of Springs!  These are a few of my favorite things.

I brought along Cucumber Tea Sandwiches.  They have been a tea party necessity for a long time.  They are quite simple, and seemingly healthy.  I think they are light and dainty.  Perfect for Tea Time!
