Valentine’s Day

When I was little we used to have very grand and elaborate Valentine’s Day Tea Parties. My favourite was the year that we had it under Aunt Cindy’s kitchen table. The boys put sheets over the table, which was round, so that there was a tent underneath. We had candles, and deviled eggs, and cookies, and tea with cream and sugar and tablespoon sized tea cups, and little sugar mints… One of the big boys laid down on the kitchen floor, stuck his head through the ‘doorway’ because he wouldn’t fit inside with us little ones, and let us feed him tiny cups of tea and cookies.
