The 12 Days of Giftmas: Day 8 - Eight Maids Went A-Milking & You Serve it Up with Style
On the:
FIRST DAY OF GIFTMAS, my True Love gave to me: a bejeweled "Partridge" in a Jewelry Tree
SECOND DAY of Giftmas: two Turtle Doves of Love
THIRD DAY: three Delicious French Hens
FOURTH DAY: four Artistic Calling Birds
FIFTH DAY: five fabulous Golden Rings
SIXTH DAY: goose foie gras with vino fino
SEVENTH DAY: elegant crystal Swans A-"Swimming"
On this, the 8th Day of Giftmas, my True Love sent Eight Maids out A-Milking, and when they returned, they poured it into a gorgeous pitcher and served up a proper High Tea. In this episode, we present two glamorous ways to serve milk: in a handblown glass pitcher, and in a sterling silver creamer that is part of a beautiful antique 7-piece tea service.
