Book Reviews of Tea with Friends
Book Review: Very Disappointed in the Lack of Content
Summary: 1 Stars
I was very disappointed in the lack of any substantial material which would give tips on how to plan a tea party. Especially lacking were the recipes that were referenced -- only one recipe for each event was printed. How are you supposed to plan a party when you don't have all of the recipes??
Considering the author has all of the experience outlined in her reviews, she does not share much with the reader that you could not find in any other book about tea. I don't believe this is a credible resource for planning a tea event.
Book Review: Well Researched. A great Tea information book.
Summary: 5 Stars
As a caterer and Tea shop owner,this book is well researced and chock full of wonderful tidbits and ideas.I have noticted this book outsells other tea books in my shop.It is a wonderful and needed addition to any Tea lovers library!Book Review: a good source for planning & setting up tea parties
Summary: 5 Stars
The first 9 pages of this 60-page book contain a brief history of tea and then general information on how to plan and set up a tea party, including pictures of how to arrange the tea table. It has the best advice in this regard of any of the other tea books I've seen.The rest of the book consists of a theme tea party for each month, with suggested table settings, activities, and menus. Only one recipe is actually listed per month, however, so you will DEFINITELY need more recipes from another book. Two of my favorite tea-time cookbooks are "The Book of Afternoon Tea" by Lesley Mackley and "Totally Teatime Cookbook" by Helene Siegel.
This is an excellent "how to" book and makes a nice gift, particularly if you include a tea-time cookbook.
Book Review: just pretty pictures

I was disappointed - thought it had ideas of more things to make...but great pictures -Book Review: tea with friends
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a beautiful book. It has a very informative guide to teas and their complementary foods. Each month has a theme, menu and a recipe. A little history is presented with the theme and a cute little invitation to join her for tea. A must for anyone who enjoys tea parties!
