High Tea in Chicago

On a recent trip to visit my sis at Wheaton, we spent the day in Chicago. After cleaning out the boys department at Ralph Lauren, we collapsed into chairs in the beautiful salon at the Peninsula Hotel for high tea. Somewhere I scribbled down the full (extensive, amazing) menu, but who knows where that is now. As soon as I locate I will add for the full effect.

My Sis, sipping some tea at the Peninsula!!

Marissa pulls off this stuff better than a male model...

First course, sandwiches!! (These were so, so, so delicious... I really wish I could remember exactly what they were!)

Scones with clotted cream, lemon curd and homemade preserves.Surprise! Coconut souffles. (Best. Souffle. Ever.)And of course... the dessert tray. By this point Marissa's RL boyz blazer was feeling a little snug and I was curled up in a ball ready for a nap in the chair next to her. We definitely cabbed it back to the train station...
