Day 27 of A Month of Gratitude in October (27th October 2020)

Day 27 of A Month of Gratitude, #AMOG, and I am #grateful for #afternoontea. Had a lovely time today at The Fullerton, sipping English Breakfast tea and munching tea time cakes,  savouries and scones. Had been expecting sandwiches, but apparently it's Breast Cancer Awareness Month and the theme is pink, and pink cakes and pastries are so much more appealing than pink sandwiches. 


Afternoon tea, if done well, is quite #civilised and #proper, and a #leisurely affair where time is forgotten in a haze of conversation and convivial companionship. Topics of conversation today ranged from politics to personal, Covid to Crohn's, meetings to migraines, and a host of other things in between. Afternoon tea is #chatter, #banter and #bonhomie, and one of my fav ways to catch up with old friends. 


The afternoon tea at Raffles Hotel is still one of my old favs, but for some reason, The Fullerton is growing on me. I simply love the flowers in her entrance too, with an explanatory note, and her old world charm. She's lovely, and time sped past in the loveliest of ways. So blessed!
