Someone's taken credit for anonymous treat!

[Monstersinked]

Quick silly one but not sure what to do.

Friend has had a hard time so I've sent them a cream tea type surprise treat. Left the card anonymous but she finds it difficult to receive without reciprocating and I wanted her to have something just for her with no strings, to cheer her up.

She posts it on social media, another Friend (I don't know) comments, saying enjoy, glad you like, you deserve it type thing

My friend says ahhhh was it you, youre amazing

Other friend says wink wink it's anonymous so I guess you'll never know

Now, to me there alluding it was then. Taking all the bloody credit. I know I didn't send it for credit or even thanks but I'm a little pissed off!

This was afternoon tea in a hotel not a cafe my friend recieved. But it wasn’t from me even though she still thinks it was
even thought lve told her 😏

OP - say it was you publicly, on that same post or page where this other woman did that wink wink thing. Say that you did not want to initially tell her who it was so that you don't feel obligated to anyone. Hopefully the other woman will think twice before saying stupid things in future.

Hold on every one, @Waterfallgirl has decided she is the post and comment police and that we are irrelevant @Queenbee77 @Hmm1234.
Damn that anyways… always late to the party.
For those like me who haven’t time to read 30 pages of comments…

THE TOPIC HAS CHANGED!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.
We are on scones now….
Which btw, I love.
Great big raspberry and white chocolate ones, just out of the oven, covered in real butter, champagne and raspberry jam (when I am feeling posh) and clotted cream.

This is exactly what you should do.

I’m in Yorkshire and reading this with horror

scone rhymes with gone
scones need sultanas in
YORKSHIRE TEA IS THE ONLY TEA
and you’re driving me mad with all the initials so you’re nowhere near me I don’t think
I need a cream tea now and the shops are shut.

I cannot believe this thread.

It's scone like gone.
It's jam first then cream. Cream is not a butter substitute, it's a glorious topping!
Scones with anything other than fruit jam are just wrong. None of this lemon curd malarkey thank you very much. And as for salted caramel...🤮

I haven’t RTFT (HAVE read all OPs comments obviously - I know how to Mumsnet) so don’t know if this has already been said….

Has anyone tried a “Savoury Cream Tea”? Cheese scone, served with butter, grated cheese and onion chutney. Absolutely delicious.

Day out at NT house and gardens… savoury cream tea for elevenses then “real” cream tea for afternoon tea (fruit or plain scone, raspberry jam then clotted cream, served with English breakfast tea).

Also in Yorkshire trying to figure out if we’re neighbours. I don’t live in Lost Property though so maybe not.

In case anyone is interested I used this company to send cream tea hampers to friends and family as “cheer up” gifts during the pandemic. https://www.cornishhampers.com/collections/cream-teas

PMSL. @Mollywollywoo I think I love you.
There was no need for that petty slight to call out anyone for posting on the original topic. What age are we ten? Childish and mean.
For me I’d have a coffee and walnut scone with lashings of butter and coffee flavoured cream. Delish and only 5 million calories.

I’ve heard it’s nice there though, better than Changing Room down the road.
A proper Yorkshire cream tea should be a Fat Rascal. Warm.

I would quietly give your recipient a call. Let them know it was from you. The problem with social media is things can get misconstrued.
Apart from the Coffee and Walnut combo mentioned above. I am a savoury girl. I do love a cheese and onion scone. Cut in two under the grill. Butter, a dab of mustard. Slice of thick ham and cheese and under the grill. Heaven on a plate.

This. All of this!
And Yorkshire tea.

I’ll have some of that!!!

Or even Masons Yorkshire Tea Gin

Butter and cream are the work of the devil 🤮

So it’s the biggest dollop of strawberry jam possible. And scone rhymes with cone.

I realise that this won’t endear me to many!

I am liking the sound of cheese scones with soup, think that will make an appearance for lunch this week.

Please stand over there, left a little. Back a little. Why does it look like a trapdoor? I don't know what you mean. And this lever? I'm just holding it. Nothing to worry about.

@ThatFraggle 🤣🤣

Savoury cheese scones - now you're talking! Some real butter, a wedge of vintage cheddar and some spicy onion chutney. It would have to be eaten accompanied by a pint of ale though, not Yorkshire tea.

RTFT 😤

I appreciate it’s long so why not just the OP’s posts?

I am horrified, just horrified at the idea of a toast scone. I have toasted a scone, it is what you do when they are past their best. For a cream tea, you need the best scones and slightly, slightly warmed through. Enough with the "toasted" philistines😡

To everyone suggesting lemon curd on a scone....are you ok?

DOING IT

This might be the way to get my kids in on the tradition. Break them in slowly
