We left the Art Institute and took a short walk to the Russian Tea Room. Even though they are booked for months in advance, Mary Fons
knows people
|
It was a beautiful day in Chicago. And we were SO THRILLED to be going to High Tea!! |
|
Fresh flowers right inside the door... |
|
We were seated at a lovely table in a corner...and enjoyed a nice visit... |
|
Lilly ordered berry tea...and we got out our Bananagrams game |
|
We ran out of time, but Mary was clearly going to win!! |
|
SO IMPRESSIVE, EH?? Ah, the sweets, the savories...all delicious |
|
Especially the warm scones with creme and jam... |
|
This was Lilly's first time for High Tea. I had it once, at the Empress Hotel on Victoria Island... |
But -- really -- nothing will ever top this.
Saturday has already been JAM-PACKED, right? You might think it was almost over....but you would be wrong...our next activity was perhaps my personal favorite of the entire weekend.
THANKS AGAIN, MARY FONS..!!
