Love affair with the (NY)City: Day 4

Day 4 was our last day to take a bite out of the Big Apple, so we inaugurated the morningtide finale by making a beeline to beat the perpetual crowds at the dainty Upper West Side wonderland of Manhattan's most heralded tearoom, Alice's Tea Cup for a veritable tea party (I think I shall ne'er tire of such a pastime)!We were entirely engrossed in the well-executed Alice in Wonderland motif of the cheeriest and wonkiest sortswhence we were presented with a most pleasant caller, JeeBee, who'd tumbled down the rabbit hole and landed right into our teatime revelry.Quirky mismatched teacups and saucers complemented our haphazard tower oftasty tea egg salad and hummus teawiches, a parade of soft and chewy cookie and mocha chip cake decadence, and the savory that nabs the taste bud prize: grandiose, exceedingly moist scones (ham & cheese, pumpkin, and buttermilk - my flavor fav)...the best scones I've had since the much-missed Londontown jaunt.Such partying was our cup of teabefore going our merry way to the Upper East Side to relish the remaining remnants of the city! More city-rollicking Day 4 snapshots here! God is sooo good. I didn't deserve this blessed trip...thank you Lord for such a luxury!
