2023 52 Card Project 2023: Week 19: Teashop

[pegkerr]

I could do another post about the unnamed life overhaul project that has been preoccupying me lately, but I'm not interested in yet another annoyingly cryptic post this week. Yes, I'm still working on this, but instead, this week's collage project is about the trip that Alona, Fiona, and I took to a tea shop to belatedly celebrate my birthday. Ordinarily, we would go to Cafe Latte in St. Paul, but alas, they discontinued their afternoon tea when the pandemic hit, and they do not plan to resume. So we took a drive to Northfield, MN, where we tried Cottage Tea Room and Fare and we were entirely pleased with the experience.

Image description: The image is surrounded by a gold flourish frame. At the top are the words "Cottage Tea Room and Fare." Three smiling women are gathered around a tea table. A three-tier stand in the center carries flower-decked foods for afternoon tea (scones, tea sandwiches, cake). Lower left corner: a rack of glass canisters labeled with various tea blends.

That's a charming card. How I'd have loved a tea shop like that when I was a student in Northfield. On campus we had a thing called the Tea Room, but whatever it was once, at that time it offered frozen microwaved hamburgers and similar things very hungry students would eat when their early dinner in the dining hall expired while they were studying.

I would have been really happy with regular visits to this place when I was going to St. Olaf.
