A Touch Of Class
It was “A Touch of Class.” An Afternoon Tea with Ivy Tech was a fundraising event for the school that our club ladies delighted in.
High Tea at the Savoy in London, no; this was better. No travel expenses, a table of friends and all the service and food delicacies you could imagine.
Round tables for eight were elaborately decorated by those at that table. They brought their centerpiece , china and all the decorations.
Some of the ladies wore stylish hats; fit to be seen at the Derby.
Waiters were notables from the area, the city mayor, the county sheriff, a retired pastor, the campus president, bankers and attorneys. They were handsome in white shirts and bow ties. They had done this service before and they were capable servers. .
The piece de resistance was, of course, the food. The tea was hot. My words can hardly do it justice.
The centerpieces were outstanding. Experienced and talented women had spent time and energy with these accomplishments.
Reluctantly we came home; wondering, what’s for dinner? What do I have for a centerpiece for my humble kitchen table?
