Hi Jenny,
Thanks for reprinting the poems! Great way to distinguish between the two… I have never been to “High Tea”–but love “Low Tea” (aka afternoon tea)! I love to get dressed up in my tea party frocks and frills to bring some elegance back to this too-casual world.

Yes, I used to mistakenly call afternoon tea a high tea. I don’t know where I learned the difference, but it wasn’t that long ago. Maybe in a novel I read, I think, but I don’t remember which.

Very interesting and surprising poem with the titles seeming to be opposite of what one would expect!

This was a cute post. I am enjoying your site. I just had my first tea party last week, and was so happy with how it turned out!
