It was a roast beef on French for lunch rather than tea service but that’s always an option now that Antique Maison Ulman Mall & Tea Room is open.

Lunch is served 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday thru Saturday. Dine in or carry out. Private parties by appointment. At 317 Ulman Ave., in the old Adams Lorraine Florist shop. 228-344-3128.

And then there are these fresh and photogenic gifts from the garden of my Neighbor with a Green Thumb.
