Isn't the the little painted basket so sweet? Of course, I needed to fill it with some chocolates!! I am using the pretty hankie as a napkin and the Irish Lace coaster is on display near the candy basket.
I am using the plate that was hand painted by my late Great Aunt Kitty, along with the matching cup and saucer for my tea.
Would you like to join me for some tea?
I love this darling little spoon that I bought at our local grocery store, Market Street.
How about some mousse?
You will need 12 shot glasses or cordials
1 (8 oz) pkg. of cream cheese softened
1 (8 oz.) container of frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 t. vanilla
1 cup fresh or frozen (thawed )fruit, chopped
powdered sugar or sugar substitute to taste
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, vanilla and sugar or sugar substitute to taste. Gently fold in the whipped topping.
Add the chopped fruit and fold in. If you want it creamier, mix it longer.
Fill each shot glass or cordial with the mousse.
Enjoy!!

Hi Kitty,
ReplyDeleteyour Aunt was an artist, the china is wonderfull painted. And with the yummy mousse it is the right treat for eyes and mouth. Thank you for sharing this yummy recipe and the nice way of arranging.
Best greetings, Johanna
Those violets just remind me so much of an old family friend unfortunately now no longer with us .... she used to make little dainty cucumber sandwiches and taught us all to make fudge... Have a great week, Kitty.

Boy, do I wish you had my mothers tea cups and saucers that I gave to the Salvation Army. They would be lovely additions to your table. I have kicked myself again and again for not keeping them, but at the time I had to make some quick decisions.
