And in The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, Mr. Tumus serves a proper tea to Lucy and this includes sardines on toast and a nice boiled egg.
Oh, my.... sardines on toast!

ummmmmm......can I skip those??????

After I read "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" out loud to my daughter's (She is my eldest and lives about three hours away from CEK and 90 min from Eastcoast) second grade class, I had a Mr. Tumnus Tea party at which I also served MnM's and potato chips as stand ins for Turkish Delight, which I then did not know how to make but do now. Only a couple of children were adventurous and brave enough to eat the sardines on toast. The rest politely said, "No thank you." and skipped it.

When I was in grade school.... we had a teacher who made Stone Soup for us.

Remember that tale?
