The When-you -Can't-be-Together Tea Party

As we live a long distance from each other my daughter and I, and her children, preset a date on the calendar when it is our Afternoon Tea Party Day.
Each at our own ends set a table with all the afternoon tea and trimmings, make a pot not a teabag.Then when the tea is ready to be poured the arranged phone call is made and we 'visit' and have our afternoon tea together. It isn't perfect but it works for us.
