Yesterday I attended a tea party for a good cause. It was part of an event to raise awareness for a battered women and children shelter in our city. The event was held at a five star restaurant (McCormick & Schmick's Sea Food)
It seemed to me that a tea party was a great way to host an event because the participants enjoyed the tea, small sandwiches, cookies and pasteries and it put everyone in a good mood for the event.
After the first 1/2 hour of socializing over cups of quality loose leaf tea (my favorite was Sugar Caramel Oolong) presentations were made that included members of the shelter who were helped by the services of the shelter and a doctor who provided medical care.
The whole event was a lot of fun and raised awareness in my mind that battered women and children still need help.
