Weeks of preparation came to a plate this past weekend with the official hosting of Pumpkin Tea 2019. The general theme this year was finger foods. It was a move back to english tea party roots. (See this year’s menu: 2019 Pumpkin Tea Menu)
The Pumpkin Tea originated twenty plus years ago as a tea and group pumpkin carving. It evolved over the years to be more about the tea and less about Halloween.
When we moved to La Pine the tea got restarted and became a day of celebratory feasting on baked goods. Then last year we included an “insta-pot-luck” … because there wasn’t enough to eat as it was (just joking).
We enjoy the time to catch up with family, share summer adventure news, and of course… play some cards.
