Sinopse

A delectable peek at the tradition of afternoon tea at the Fairmont Empress Hotel -- and the enchanting history of taking tea 
Muriel Moffat has been sipping tea at Victoria's storied Empress Hotel for 60 years -- and sharing all those lovely cups with four generations of Moffats. When she poured her love of all things tea into a darling little book, it soon became a bestseller, with 30,000 copies sold from the shelves of the Empress gift shop in just five years. 
 Beautifully redesigned and ready for its book trade debut, Afternoon Tea offers a peek behind the curtain at the magnificent hotel, where afternoon tea has been taken with elegance and gourmet indulgence since 1908. Included are several well-loved recipes from the Tea Lobby, which has hosted the likes of Queen Elizabeth II, Rudyard Kipling and Shirley Temple. 
This charming book is also a chatty and colourful history of tea and the many rituals surrounding it, sure to entertain the novice and enthusiast alike. Steeped in a love of traditions, Ms. Moffat's beloved book celebrates a littleknown ritual that may just be the foundation of everything worthy -- family, friends and, of course, tea.

    When you are ready to begin changing your nutrition around, one amongst the most effective ways to get a strong handle, this is to try a new healthy meal weekly at home. Once you are attempting to vary your nutrition to eat in a lot of healthy manners, it is essential you break out of your routine. One amongst the most causes for excessive weight gain is because of the food decisions made daily. 
      
    If you frequently visit fast food spots, restaurants, or order home dish delivery, then you may probably consistently have problems trying to tackle the weight loss issue since those meals typically provide far overlarge of potions for one single meal. 
      
    The best part about trying a new healthy meal weekly is that you will designate one specific day where you and your family attempt a new recipe. Perhaps give the day a special name too if you've got young kids like "Healthy Wednesday," or "Friday Family Dinner Night." 
      
    To taking a step further, you can even rotate the choice, so everybody gets to research and choose the meal that appears most appealing to them, so everybody feels a part of this healthy life transition.
