Tea For Two

Jake and I have been together for 5 years now! It's been pretty awesome! I love how Jake is constantly keeping me on my toes and he is always up for trying something new.  When we stayed at The Grand America Hotel for his birthday, we attend Afternoon Tea Time in the Lobby Lounge. I was so excited Jake was up for going to Tea.  For both of us, this was the highlight of our trip!  

Every day I feel like I am running around trying to get things done and when Jake gets home from work, we are constantly out running around together! There is always so much going on to get done, it was so nice to be able to sit and relax at Tea Time.  One thing I loved about tea time is there is no rush.  Everything is a well-paced process where there is time to relax, talk, connect and enjoy fantastic finger foods! The finger sandwiches and scones were so amazing! I loved being able to try a little bit of everything!

I think I want to incorporate going to Afternoon Tea once a month! It was so nice to sit on a cozy couch and take the time to relax and talk.   Sometimes I forget how important it is to take the time to just sit.   Next time I am in charge of a baby shower or bridal shower, I want to take everyone to Afternoon Tea!  It seriously is the perfect setting for so many events, and everything is planned for you! I love to plan parties and always do too much, so it would be so nice to have the decor, beautiful scenery, and food all done for me before-hand and with no clean up! Sounds dreamy right?!!  

When we were at Tea there was a lady playing the harp and the music was beautiful! I could have sat and listened to her play all day! My mom is coming to visit sometime soon and I want to take her to Afternoon Tea! I feel it's the perfect place to bring a visitor!  Then after we can explore the hotel and have fun walking around! If you live in the area, and are looking for a fun afternoon date or girl's time, I highly recommend make reservations for Tea Time!  It's a blast! Plus you get to dress up all fancy if you want, and what's more fun than that?!
