Tea Etiquette at McClay ADC

The residents of the McClay ADC Center participated in my Tea Etiquette Class during January's Hot Tea Month.  The ladies were dressed in red and purple hats, pearls, and gloves. Not only did the ladies participate, but a few men joined too. I think it was mostly for the delicious finger sandwiches and pastries! Anyway. . . Real men drink hot tea!!! It was a lot of fun! They drank a lot of tea. . . I promise, it was straight tea too!

Oh the weather outside is frightful, But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go, Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. . .

The weather forecasters are predicating snow later this week, and it's to be expected, after all, it is Wintertime. January is also National Hot Tea Month. It's time to sit down by a  cozy crackling, warm fire and sip on a hot cup of aromatic tea. Actually, tea is enjoyable anytime of the year. There is also a lot of interesting facts about tea. To learn more, join me for a cup of tea on Saturday, January 21, 2017 for my Hot Tea Class. For more information call 314-374-2804.

Brrrrrr! Baby it's cold outside!!! However, it was delightfully warm inside. Today I had a Dining Etiquette class with a lovely group of young ladies. They are members of the Junior Girl Scouts of Eastern Missouri. The class was held at Carmine's Steak House in beautiful Downtown St. Louis. We had a wonderful private room. It was the perfect size for the class of 14 people. Carmines did a great job on setting the table. I loved the fruit designed chargers (service plates) they use. As always, the food was excellent, so I heard. . . because, as always, I did not get to eat any of it! That's a little hard for me to manage gracefully while conducting a class. Anyway, their lasagna is delicious! The salads are pretty good too. The girls did a great job in the class. They were all dressed up and very festive looking. They really enjoyed the class and the chocolate cake! Thank you Scouts!

KSDK-TV 5, News broadcast

Last week I conducted an etiquette class for some wonderful young ladies.  KSDK-TV 5, was there to tape a portion of the class. They ran the segment today on the morning news. Anchorwoman, Nichole Burlie did the interview, assisted by Joe, her cameraman. The class was with the Covenant Daughters from Grace New Covenant Church. The girls were so excited about the broadcast. . . I was too! Here's the link to the segment.
