Time for tea in Walpole

Fancy That, a vintage gift and rental shop in Walpole opened for afternoon tea this month. Pictured: A cup of tea in a “trio” of mismatched vintage flatware.

The light fare that accompanies afternoon tea is served properly on a three-tiered dish with scones on the top, finger sandwiches in the middle, and sweets on the bottom.
