Tea with Miss RoseTea with Miss Rose: Elizabeth Driscoll & Elaine Negroponte A winner of the 2003 New England Book Show, Tea with Miss Rose: Recipes and Reminiscences of Boston's Teacup Society (Mount Vernon Press, 2002) is a beautifully presented biography/cookbook that draws us into a bygone era. A soupçon of Boston history, period recipes, and "how to" advice on baking, serving, and setting the perfect tea table, Tea with Miss Rose gives us a glimpse into the life and times of Bostonian Rose Standish Nichols (1872-1960), America's first woman landscape designer-a commanding woman capable of turning an afternoon tea into an art form. From beginning to end, Miss Rose's forceful personality infuses the pages of this delightful volume like the unmistakable whiff of her favorite Hu-Kwa tea. |
