Today Karen and I left the kids with Dad and Donna and went to the Chateau Laurier for afternoon tea. We were saying that we were ladies who lunch, but without the fancy hats. Karen pointed out that you really need to drink sherry to be a lady who lunches. True. We quickly remedied the situation.
We chose the traditional tea (there is also the Canadian Tea and the Champagne Tea). It came with three types of crustless sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and jam, and some sweets. Oh, and tea of course.
It was fantastic. We've decided to make it a tradition. When I'm in Ottawa, we'll go to Chateau Laurier for tea, and when she is in Austin, we will go to the Four Seasons for theirs.
Earlier in the day, Emily created a masterpiece which I'm sure you'll see someday at the National Gallery. She calls it 'Dad':
