Shannon Ansaldi reviewed StudioE/ Tea Cottage — 5 star March 15 ·....Lady Estelle is amazing. Our girl scout troop really enjoyed learning about etiquette and manners. Estelle kept the girls entertained and they loved learning about high tea. It was so much fun getting dressed up and seeing what women used to wear. I cannot recommend her enough. Great for girl scouts/girls birthday parties!!

Baked Apple Roses

Baked Apple Roses

This was my second time making these and they get prettier and easier every time.
Recipe By:Chef John
"These were inspired by a cook named Ana, a Brazilian food blogger living in Italy. I really hope you give these gorgeous looking, and very delicious apple roses a try soon. Enjoy!"
Ingredients

1 large red apple, cored and very thinly sliced
1/4 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed

1/4 cup melted butter
1 egg
2 teaspoons water
1 teaspoon confectioners' sugar (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter 2 small ramekins (6 to 8 ounce) and dust with white sugar.
Place apple slices on a plate, overlapping slightly if necessary. Microwave on High about 45 seconds just until slices have softened a bit. Cover plate with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel.
Mix together sugar and cinnamon in a bowl.
Roll puff pastry sheet to less than 1/8-inch thickness. Using a pizza cutter, cut two 3-inch by 12-inch rectangles. Reserve remaining pieces for another use.
Spread melted butter over dough; top with a generous amount of cinnamon-sugar. Place apple slices along 1 long edge of dough, about 1/4 inch beyond edge of dough, overlapping slices slightly. Fold bottom half of dough over the apple slices to form a long "folder" of dough with rounded edges of apple slices exposed.
Beat egg and water together in a bowl. Paint surface of dough with egg wash. Sprinkle with more cinnamon-sugar, to taste.
Starting from one end, roll dough not too tightly to form a rose-shaped pastry. Seal roll with end of dough strip.
Transfer roses to prepared ramekins. Sprinkle with a little more cinnamon-sugar. Place ramekins directly on middle rack of preheated oven.
Bake until well browned, about 45 minutes. Remove ramekins with tongs and place on baking sheet to cool 5 to 10 minutes. Remove apple roses from ramekins and finish cooling on rack. Dust with confectioners' sugar before serving.

We sat around in Halloween attire, sipped tea and told ghost stories, while we waited for the TRICK-O-TREATER'S. Very strangely non of the little children showed up. I wounder why said the spider to the fly.

I love the color of October.

Hearthside House- Great Road Day - Perfect cup of tea

Summer Comes

                                                   The Little darling Spring
                                                    has run away
                                                   The sunshine grew too hot
                                                   for her to stay
                                                   She kissed her sister,
                                                   Summer, and she said
                                                   "When I am gone, you
                                                   must be queen instead"
                                                   Now reign the Lady 
                                                   Summer, round whose feet
                                                   A thousand fairies flock
                                                   with blossoms sweet.
