a presentation of scones with Devonshire or clotted cream, tiny finger sandwiches, and small pastries served on fine china, accompanied by hot tea, of course.\u00a0 Here, we also might have an assorted selection of savory tarts as well, depending on the preference of those selecting the menu.<\/p>\n<p>High tea is usually served between 3:00 and 5:00pm, originally intended as something to tide you over between breakfast and a late and heavy dinner.\u00a0 Daily meals weren\u2019t always breakfast, lunch and dinner.\u00a0 In fact, in the 16<sup>th<\/sup> Century, before tea had made its way into Great Britain, there were two main daily meals for the English: breakfast, and dinner.\u00a0 Because it was filling, breakfast often consisted of something heavy to stick with you through the day: bread, beef and believe it or not, ale.\u00a0 It wasn\u2019t until the mid-18<sup>th<\/sup> Century that the middle class and the well-to-do had gradually rescheduled their dinners from what we think of as lunchtime to the end of their day.\u00a0 No small matter, the evening meal was lengthy, and quite substantial.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11608\"

share some time relaxing and refueling, so to speak, before late dinner.\u00a0 As you might expect, afternoon tea soon became a popular social trend.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2248\"
