Well, as far as I know, the traditional thing for tea parties is the cucumber
sandwich. I personally like them, with or without tea, biut they ARE suited for
the occasion.

Get some darker bread, such as Arnold's Branola, or any jewish Rye bread.
Also, get some philly cream cheese, perhaps (optionally) some anchovy paste (at
better supermarket or local delicatessen shop), and last, but obviously not
least, some cucumbers.

Cover the bread with cream cheese, then apply a small dab of anchovy paste,
spread it, and then cover with slices of peeled cucumber. Cut the bread into
small squares (the size of a cucumber slice) and serve.

Sometimes, if not too many people are coming, I will skin a cucumber, slice it,
and then apply dabs of cream cheese directly onto the cucumber, and then put a
drop of anchovy paste onto the top of this. You must however really press the
cheese onto the cucumber, as it will not stick otherwise.
