Question Recipes for a Ladies Tea. Help??

We are having our annual Ladies' Tea this coming Friday night. I have to make 5-6 dozen tea sandwiches, as well as anything else I can think of that would fit in.

Sooooo.......... anybody have any highly recommended recipes? I would ask for the recipes for oarderves but I don't know how to spell it. LOL Tea Sandwich recipes would be great!! Small finger foods. Whatever you have! Help quick tho, please!!

Thanks soooo, sooo, much!

Re: Recipes for a Ladies Tea. Help??

Margie,
You know, just my experience, but it seems when I keep things simple, people enjoy it more. So, for sandwiches I just do the traditional chicken salad, tuna salad and ham salad. Sometimes I might throw in pimento cheese, cucumber and egg salad.

I always cut the crust off, which I am sure you already do. It makes everything look so much more elegant.

Also, and you probably already do this as well, put the green leaf lettuce leaves on the platters and then place the sandwiches.

Make sure if you use crackers, they don't compete with any dip you might serve.

AND serve that awesome punch you listed. I have used it, at least, six times since!

Oh yeah. That's me! I can stir fry, make grilled cheese sandwiches, hamburgers, and heat up soup. That's about the extent of my culinary repertoire.
