Britain runs on . . .

Tea. Oh yes. Tea and biscuits. One of the finest, most civilized ways to spend a 15-minute break from life.
Last summer I was in a charity shop and I saw this service, which I had to buy because of the beautiful "A" monogram (which you can't make out, unfortunately). The lovely tray is from my mom.

Tea set? $30 or so. Tray from mom, priceless.
