The lovely and generous Cathie of Melbourne Epicure hosted an afternoon tea for the Cancer Council of Victoria today, and if the cause wasn't enough to get you through the door, the spread Cathie put on certainly would be.

Cathie does everything just so beautifully, from the gorgeous wire display racks as seen above to the petite biscuits perched on the edge of all the tea cups.
I was also lucky enough to win a couple of the raffle prizes and came home with a beautiful cushion featuring 'Annie' a gorgeous lady created by Leonie.
You can see versions of 'Annie' being printed on Leonie's blog here.
It was too dark to photograph it when I got home but will do so soon.
Thanks to Leonie for donating this beauty.
Cathie was hoping to beat the amount raised last year and if the number of people in attendance was anything to go by I would say she smashed it. (I'll keep you posted on that one).
I am sure if you wanted to make a donation in the name of Melbourne Epicure to support Cathie and her efforts today it would be most welcome.
Well done Cathie!

What a special afternoon tea, love the biscuits in the cups
Wow that is a serious looking spread - am a teensy weeny bit jealous:)
I'm glad my absence was notable! I certainly noticed it!! While you were tucking into that delicious fare and fabulous company I was probably waiting for RACV at the Wallan BP on the Hume Hwy because I'd locked our keys in the car...hmmm. How fun to win a raffle prize.
It was fabulous wasn't it ?
thank you sweet Karen once again for your sweet generosity and for your beautiful words & pics.
It was a wonderful day and I am still trying to recover.
I am yet to do the final count but it is over $2000..yay!
I'll keep you updated on FB.
thanks for your support & so happy you won that gorgeous gorgeous cushion.
big hugs ♥
It was a lovely day indeed. Fabulous food, fabulous company, what more could you ask for.
So thrilled that you like the cushion. x
Hi Karen, it was lovely to meet you and I was even more lucky because I won the beautiful skirt and headband you kindly donated for the afternoon.
It was a fabulous event all round. Wonderful food and company.
Lovely to catch up with you.
