Comments on: Time For Tea? http://greedydave.com/time_for_tea Food & drink from Britain and elsewhere Tue, 07 Sep 2010 10:45:51 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7.1 hourly 1 By: greedydave http://greedydave.com/time_for_tea/comment-page-1#comment-2737 greedydave Tue, 16 Feb 2010 19:47:57 +0000 http://greedydave.com/?p=2757#comment-2737 Young ladies! Thanks for coming back. Really sorry for falling off the face of the earth these last few months. Damn you real life!! The post was inspired by the person mentioned in the first paragraph, mainly because I've found myself in exactly the same argument! True to my nature I had to delve through history to find the answer. I'm sure I have mild OCD, or something. :) I'm certain that English scones could be made the GF way, even if <i>personally</i> I do enjoy my gluten cooties! Actually I just purchased an item/substance at my local supermarket that is available thanks to the demand for coeliac-friendly products. I have somethings a little different in mind for it though. Any guesses!? Seriously though, it's given me such a boost to hear from you both. I'd assumed that I may have lost my favourite blogger buds from being away so long and it's given me such an enormous boost to see your names again! GDave Young ladies!

I've been out of town lately and quite busy as well. I was really starting to wonder about you. I figured you must have found yourself a new girlfriend or something. I would guess that that would trump blogging. This post is quite interesting, as are all of your historical entries. I love hearing about British history. And if that little tea cake is made with amaranth or sorghum flour, I'll have one. Thanks to Cid, I'm thinking when I pop over there, you'll all be ready with some gluten-free treats. Welcome back! We've missed your lively wit. Melissa GDave,

I love afternoon tea or tiffin.... easy to do and great for a mid afternoon gossip with the girls (something history seems to echo). Someone better tell Melissa you're alive and well because she's bound to be planning a GF tea for us.... which by the way, I'm a bit closer to understanding. I've tried a few GF cakes and biscuits lately and very nice they were too.... I must be armed and ready to whip out the multi-storey tiffin stand when I get the call that she's on her way :) Cid GDave,
