After work today I took Claire to "The London Tea Room" for lunch. I told her it would be like a real tea party like in Alice in Wonderland. We had Cream Tea; a real china pot full of tea (Monk's blend) and all of accoutrements - sugar, cream, authentic blueberry scones with strawberry jam and devonshire cream. Claire got a kick out of having me pour her a real cup of tea. I let her add all the cream and sugar she wanted. She didn't really like it, but she loved the scone and kept saying "Can we come back here tomorrow?" and doing these fancy hand gestures like a princess. It was so sweet. We split a croque monsier for lunch and brought a huge piece of chocolate cake home for Mike.
