Jane Austen Birthday Tea

How appropriate, at the time of year when Pride & Prejudice was published, that my sister Emily (of Jane Austen Mad) should choose to celebrate her 13th birthday with a Regency Tea Party!

                                             And, of course, a cameo cake made by Me.
  
                                                 Orange and white chocolate truffles.
And gorgeous teacups.
 
 
The guests all dressed up.
 
"Midder Dardee" quite happy with his tin "teacup."
 
Couldn't resist adding this one! We finished the evening by watching Sense and Sensibility.
1995, Of Course.
