Hi Five Sai's Alive High Tea

/ Monday /









My friend Sai went into hospital last week after having an asthma attack. It was really really scary, there were lots of tears and it's something I would like to not ever happen again.

On the upside, to celebrate our relief and the fact that she was still with us, the logical thing for us to do was to put on a high tea. Three people and four hours later in the kitchen we delivered a spread to be proud of- I still don't know how things take so long though!

On the menu: egg, chicken, salmon and beef sandwiches, chorizo and spinach quiches, mango pudding, carrot cake, fairy bread, portuguese tarts, scones & whoopie pies.  

Plus our lovely guests brought: coconut heart jellies, salty choc-chip cookies, a whole tiramisu & raspberry and oreo cheesecakes.

Do you have a favourite high tea dish?

Thanks guys. Sai is fine now. Might have something to with that fairy bread! Hopefully I'll have a chance to cook for all of you one day!

i'm so glad she's all better. I can't think of a better way to celebrate a full recovery either, that's an impressive spread!
