I feel like I have had Tea with 13 different women and come away with 13 delicious recipes! The description of the countryside,and cities made me feel as if I was right there, I think I could actually hear the church bells ringing! The sharing of their lives was a fascinating read.
This book is enchanting, it touches the soul and reaffirms traditions such as tea time, in its many forms. The ladies in each chapter are as different as jasmine tea and Earl Gray and delight, each in their own way. The recipes are wonderful as well. I would recommend this book for any tea lover, or lover of tradition in our lives, the special rituals that shape us early on and touch us deep inside.
This book brings back memories of my trip to Burma where I stayed in a British hotel. Afternoon tea at 4:00 each day was a delight.
