N., a good friend popped in last Friday to say hi after spending several months in Bangladesh. Since it was too hot and humid for hot tea, we had iced tea instead and some nice store-bought goodies. I served some Estrel's caramel cake, Quezo de Bola ensaimada from Hizon's and freshly baked buttermilk biscuits from the wonderful Bisquick world of just-add-water-and-pop-into-a-hot-oven.
Served with softened butter and raspberry jam, we were in biscuit heaven. It wasn't really the traditional English tea party with hot tea and milk, scones and clotted cream and cucumber sandwiches but we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
the spread -- didn't get to take a picture of the biscuits :(
I love spending afternoons like this, good food and conversation with great friends.
