Too Beautiful to Eat?, originally uploaded by moriza.

I’m looking for these to try the next time I enjoy my green or oolong tea. These are consumed during tea ceremonies instead of putting sugar in your tea.

I thought I’d share some of my Flicker Favs while I’m waiting for Tech Hubby to grill the steaks. If you click on the links below the pictures, they will take you to the rest of this persons photo stream.

How NOT to Eat a Scone!
Posted by Melissa at 5:29 pm in Etiquette and Manners, Food

Diet, what diet ?!, originally uploaded by gandh41.

This is not the proper way to eat a scone. This icky mess is an eye sore and will most likely end up all over your hands and face and up your nose!
To properly eat a scone; tear/break off a bite sized piece, spread a layer of jam first (from your plate, placed there by you instead of scooping it out every time you need jam) then add a layer of cream on top of the jam.Continue to eat your scone piece by piece and not bite by bite.
