  Tea is the celebratory beverage of choice around here! A Hitty friend gave us the tin of Queen’s tea cakes – so appropriate for this afternoon’s event.

Constance almost looks like she’s sitting on a throne herself…she’s such a regal, statuesque little doll. How fun to be reminded of this memorable day.

  She was hoping to get a new afternoon tea frock, but a summertime cold has set in to the human household, so that didn’t happen, drat!

  Any excuse for a cup of tea really, but we did have the perfect biscuit tin for the day!

Mmmm. Tea and cookies. That sounds exactly right. I am off to put the kettle on! That apron of Constance’s is my favourite of hers – such a nice colour.

  The apron is made out of a former Yoyo circle! Constance loves it too…
