Steeped in Evil (A Tea Shop Mystery)
““Where are the salads? Where are the salads?” Drayton cried. “I’ve got tables waiting!”
Theodosia came hurrying out of the kitchen, carrying a large silver tray that held a half-dozen beautifully plated salads.
“They’re right here,” she said. “A mix of summer greens with honey Dijon dressing. Just as Haley promised.”
Drayton poked a finger at one of the salads. “What on earth is that leafy little garnish?”
“A sprig of thyme,” said Theodosia.
“Looks like Haley paid a visit to the farmer’s market... again.”
“I think she does every morning,” said Theodosia. “She’s such a stickler for fresh ingredients.”
Drayton grabbed the tray from Theodosia. “Just as long as she doesn’t try to make us over into one of those trendy California farm-to-table restaurants where they serve thistle salads and wheat juice shooters.”
Theodosia grinned at him. “You know, that doesn’t sound all that bad.”
“Oh please,” said Drayton, darting away.
But the rest of Haley’s menu was traditional tea shop fare.MoreLess
