They provide you with a pretty Japanese teapot of tea, and you pour it out foi yourselves. It is so homelike and cosy. Should you go to Timaru, I should ad: vise you to call there for afternoon tea, Thb cakes and fancy biscuits are de> liciouß, quite equal to anything you gel m Christchurch orDunedin. They hay( a very large assortment of all those delicious chocolates we were talking about when I saw you last. They tel me BUDD is quite an artist m Weddinf Cakes. I saw a splendid one there, als( a very pretty Christening Cake, witl such a dear little cradle on it, made o the same stuff they make Wedding Caki ornaments of, the coverlet being a deli cate pale blue silk. He has a splendk Wedding Cake stand and knife which hi lets out on hire. Altogether I think th< place is quite " up to date." BUDD, '.« THE >' CONFECTIONERS
