Ava's Secret Tea Party

My husband bought beautiful flowers for me and I think they bring out the beauty of the cover for "Ava's Secret Tea Party." The book shown is the hardcover version. I received the tea cup at a Mother's Day banquet where I spoke, and the crystal paperweights were gifts as well. Lovely memories to keep.

Chicken Pecan Salad Croissants

4 c. cubed, cooked chicken
1 c. seedless grapes
1 c. pecan pieces
1/2 c. mayonnaise 
1/4 c. sour cream
2 tbsp. honey
Pepper, to taste

Combine chicken, grapes and pecans in large bowl; set aside. In small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, sour cream, honey, and pepper in to blend well. Add to chicken mixture. This chicken salad can be served on other types of bread, but for fancy tea parties, it's best served on flaky croissants.
