Well, a traditional tea would have finger sandwiches (you can look up recipes but standards are cucumber, pear & gorgonzola, egg salad), scones with Devonshire cream if you can find it (but definately jam) and an assortment of small pastries and desserts. Petit fours are a nice choice. Your tea party sounds like fun. Good luck and enjoy it.

My Grandmother's favorites for tea was always apricot tansies and little lemon tarts.

Have little sandwiches for people who are afraid of eating something like a cucumber sandwich. :) Include anything people put in their tea- lemon, cream, sugar/honey/splenda etc... I've put *butter* in my tea (but not in front of other people) so i don't know what is/isn't common enough to include.

Anything small and light you can eat with your fingers. Small sandwiches, cookies, brownies, small peices of fruit. Even though it's a tea you can still very creative with the food.

I don't know what I'd expect, but here's what I'd want: -blueberry tea (amaretto, grand marnier, earl grey tea) -welsh cakes and/or strawberry shortcake (the shortcake can be made ahead of time, but the welsh cakes should be just cooling when the guests arrive) -finger sandwiches (both can be made ahead of time): edam cheese, baby arugula, guacamole; coronation chicken (a kind of curry chicken salad) Coronation Chicken: 1. poach chicken breasts, allow to cool, cut into small pieces 2. make curry sauce: saute 1 small onion (finely chopped) until transluscent; add 1 tbsp curry paste, 1 tbsp tomato puree, 4 fl. oz (100 ml) red wine, 1 bay leaf, juice from 1/2 lemon; stir, lower heat and simmer for 10 minutes, strain and allow to cool 3. make apricot mayo: puree 4 apricot halves (canned) and mix with mayo 4. mix apricot mayo with cooled-down curry sauce 5. whip 4 fl. oz (100 ml) whipping cream; fold it into the apricot curry mayo; season with salt, pepper, lemon juice to taste 6. thoroughly coat chicken with dressing You can serve this as a salad or as a filling for a sandwich.
