3.0 out of 5 stars "One Is Like The Other", July 8, 2000

By	Paula F. Sifferd (Lansing, MI) - See all my reviews

If you own or have read Emilie Barnes' lovely book, If Teacup's Could Talk, you will find it very similar to this book. It contains the same basic recipes and tea information. This book does give a little more detailed information, however if you want nicer pictures and easier reading, the other book would be my choice. Emilie Barnes is a great author with a delightful way of inspiring people, so it is no sin to own both books, however if you are on a budget, you may want to just buy one of the books, you would not be missing anything that way.

4.0 out of 5 stars Delightful!, August 5, 2000

By	Dera R Williams (Oakland, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This delightful book was given to me by my daughter who knows I love tea parties. The ideas are great and adaptable for private parties (for one) or for a group. There is something about giving a tea that soothes the soul.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Worth Nine Bucks, September 7, 2003

By	Penny G. Garcia "cookbook fiend" (San Antonio, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Yes, a sweet book, as others have described it. But, I was a tad disappointed that it was so thin when I received it. I would not have paid nine bucks for this book if I had seen it first. This is the type of book I would pick up at a gift shop for three or four dollars, max. Still contemplating returning this one; I wouldn't even have to box it up - just stick it in an envelope and mail it back.
