Today,
I
decided
to
break
quarantine
to
have
a
teddy
bear
tea
with
with
my
son.
We
had
a
reservation
for
12p.m.
and
were
very
excited
for
the
occasion.
We
both
dressed
up
and
packed
an
assortment
of
stuffed
animals
to
take
with
us.
When
we
arrived,
the
dining
room
had
about
three
active
tables
but
I
didn't
see
any
staff.
I
waited
a
few
minutes
and
then
caught
a
bell
hop
to
assist
me.
He
walked
around
and
then
back
to
the
kitchen
to
find
someone
who
was
working
the
dining
room.
Eventually,
a
hostess
seated
us.
However,
even
though
the
dining
room
was
almost
completely
empty,
she
sat
us
right
next
to
a
table
of
women
camped
out
in
their
virtual
office.
The
magical
vision
I
had
for
this
occasion
(based
on
the
advertising
images
online)
began
fading
fast,
but
I
wasn't
prepared
for
just
how
abisymal
this
experience
would
be.
Once
seated,
my
son
was
given
a
plate
with
two
sandwiches,
a
grocery
store
cookie,
and
a
tiny
grocery
store
type
cupcake.
The
one
sandwich
was
a
lunch
meat
and
processed
american
cheese
sandwich
on
white
bread
cut
into
a
triangle.
The
other
was
a
peanut-butter
and
jelly
sandwich
on
white
bread
cut
into
a
star.
He
was
given
two
dalopps
of
something
I
couldn't
understand,
but
nothing
to
spread
them
on.
I
was
given
a
pot
of
tea
that
was
unstrained
and
full
of
loose
leaf
tea
that
came
pouring
into
my
cup.
When
a
waiter
appeared
after
10-15
minutes,
I
asked
what
the
dalopps
were
to
be
spread
on
and
they
went
back
to
the
kitchen
to
return
with
a
scone.
I
tried
asking
another
what
the
dalopps
were
and
in
the
middle
of
answering
my
question,
the
phone
rang
and
the
hostess
decided
answering
the
phone
was
more
important
than
completing
her
answer
to
me.
She
never
returned
to
explain
the
red
dalopps.
After
seeing
the
rather
disgusting
spread
my
son
was
given,
I
switched
my
order
to
lunch
and
had
salmon.
As
we
waited
for
the
salmon
to
arrive
(40
minutes
into
our
tea),
my
son
began
standing
up
and
moving
around.
The
hostess
asked
if
he
wanted
to
watch
television.
No,
we
are
supposed
to
be
having
a
tea
party!
Although,
I
feel
like
I'm
on
a
working
lunch
giving
the
noise
behind
us.
Before
we
were
about
to
leave,
a
party
of
two
ladies
was
sat
in
reserved
seating
by
the
fire
and
given
a
beautiful
stand
of
cakes
and
sandwiches.
My
son
asked
why
their
food
was
so
pretty.
When
the
waiter
returned
with
our
check
he
asked
him
the
same
thing.
His
reply,
"because
your
mother
ordered
the
teddy
bear
tea.
