Tea Party

Lies, glamour, gossip and Earl Grey tea, turbulent tales boiling in china cups, elegant sacraments of blue-haired ladies pinkies stuck up in the air, hiding their pain or boredom or unleashing their hidden affairs. Crimson glass roses, feathers and jewels crowned with wide-brim hats and trim, gloves, lace fans and perhaps some pearls, are appealing to these extravagant young and proper old girls. The girls do not approve of: Cola Tortilla chips or Piercings of the tongue… Invitation is by “Tea Bag Only,” which is merely a device, to project the status of a seriously affluent wife. Shaved legs, polished nails and Gi Gi’s Brazilian waxing, will enliven you as one of the crowd but may seem a little taxing.
