Food and Drink Paradise – Tea Party

Do you have any new idea for a Wedding tea party or Birthday party? Are you looking for one?

One student, Judy, was asking a cooking class teacher, whether she could give some advice and provide her some simple recipes for her up coming tea party.

This is her first time organizing such a great gathering. She had never attended a wedding and Birthday party before. She had no confidence at all. Moreover, this is only her second cooking lesson.

“Well, I have to help her. I love to give her all my support”!

The teacher said to the class.

She started first with cocktail.
