Wintry perks: tea and scones



Bring back the delights of the proper British tradition of tea.  The snow we have in the UK right now makes me want to sit in front of a log fire and savour biscuits, cakes, scones and piping hot tea, but in order to make it special, the tea has to be served from a beautiful teapot. Ban tea bags in mugs for one afternoon,  think of the Savoy, The Plaza, the Royal Monceau and you get the picture.  In the clip above an antique silver George III teapot from FrenchCachet.com
