Rose Higashi and Kathleen Pedulla are an aunt (Rose) and niece (Kathleen) who grew up in a multi-cultural family in which afternoon tea was a part of daily life. Sharing Tea: The Road Back to Civilization is the product of our life experience in our nuclear family and our later educations, professional lives and travel. Serendipitously, while both of us continue to be grounded by afternoon tea, our professional experiences have evolved in a contrasting and complementary pattern.
Sharing Tea: The Road Back to Civilization reflects Kathleen and Rose’s lifetime commitment to living lives of creative expression in harmony with the land and the changing seasons. We were raised in a family that treasures tradition, looks to our ancestors for inspiration and embraces diversity and change with optimism. Afternoon Tea has a deep and enduring meaning for us as a way of offering hospitality, living creatively and expressing gratitude and affection for the gifts we have been given and the people we love. In this book we share our story with you and hope you will join us for Afternoon Tea.
