Welcome to Tea Time 2025. These posts will be about Tea Rooms we’ve been to, Teas we’ve given for friends and family, Church Tea events, and High Tea in restaurants from 2008 to the present. Tea in the U.S.A., Tea in England and Tea in Canada. Many of the Tea Rooms are no longer in business, which is sad.
Back to the year 2008 and to Madam Fifi’s with more of our family.
After our very successful trip to Goodwill the ladies arrived at Madam Fifi’s Tea Room at Country Village in Bothell for an Afternoon Tea. This was the day after Thanksgiving in 2008.

Madam Fifi (Christine) had our lovely room all ready for us. The usual after Thanksgiving Goodwill shoppers were in attendance and this year we inducted Pat (my DIL Laura’s mother) into the group. Katie, Laura, my sister Lana, sister-in-law Letty, Pat and me for tea.
We each chose our tea and enoyed a relaxing time.

Our sandwiches, scones, clotted cream, lemon curd, and sweets were divine!

That looks like a lovely tea with some lovely ladies!
Lovely tea and beautiful family photos. You are blessed! Take care, have a great day!
…can have some snacks and a glass of ice water please?
Delicious!
Did they always have such delicacies for tea time? So extravagant!
Yes, they do. Sometimes they are fancier and sometimes more plain but always a nice variety of delicacies.
Looks like a lot of fun!
Such a great selection of goodies.
Divine is a perfect word for this. I thoroughly enjoyed reading and seeing all the lovely photos. Thank you Ellen!
What a great tradition. To have clotted cream and lemon curd on my scone would be the best!!
Oh fun! Years ago, we went to a tea room for my younger sister’s birthday (sadly, the place has closed down since then. It was still a lot of fun, though.)
