Matilda & I took Grandma Marge to the Tea Room at the Huntington Gardens today for a super fun time. It was a rainy, cool day here which made the warm tea and scones that arrived immediately at our table even more welcomed.
Matilda ate three scones straight away trying them first with butter, then cream, and then butter with cream. As you would expect, the buffet had adorable, and delicious, little sandwiches. We sampled the cucumber, watercress, egg salad, carrot ginger (mine & mom's favorite of the day), chicken salad and smoked salmon (Matilda's preferred). Mom & I both missed noticing it on the buffet, but Matilda immediately spotted the caviar and asked what it was. 
She quickly declared that she loved the salty fishy delicacy (like there was any doubt that she would) and proceeded to eat an unreasonable amount. She also had quite a few chocolate tart cups filled with lemon custard and cream. 
Tim & Porter found their own fun around the gardens while we spent a long afternoon stuffing ourselves and enjoying the rainy view out over the herb gardens. A lovely, lovely time.
