Cozy Comforts
Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness,
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun;
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eaves run;
To bend with apples the moss'd cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core . . .
— John Keats, “Ode to Autumn”
Like Keats, we, too, have fallen under autumn’s sensory spell. In this issue of TeaTime, we salute the season with mouthwatering menus, flea-market forays, and a salute to a Victorian-era author whose work elevated the care of home and hearth from tedious toil to a labor of love.
Our tea for stitchers celebrates the timeless art of needlework combined with a selection of sweets and savories sweetly themed to the occasion. We also offer a buffet of tea-infused brunch recipes, a colorful starter salad with a piquant panna cotta dressing, and our take on the ultimate teatime comfort food: sticky toffee pudding. |
