Welcome to my Tea Party
Ahh yes, so now I know ;)
Crumpet
A round, soft yeast bread, much like one half of an English muffin in appearance and taste, that is made from a prepared batter. The batter is poured into a mold on a griddle and cooked to a brown smooth surface on the bottom while the top surface settles to become rough and filled with open holes. This traditional British bread is always served heated or toasted, topped with butter, jam, jelly, or cream cheese. The rough texture allows the surface to absorb and hold any spreadable topping added to the crumpet.
And now all I need are teacups and my porcelain dolls to whom I can ask in an accurate British accent, "one lump or two?"
...and maybe a frilly apron?

Ooooh, Crumpets :-). 3 great ways to have them: with lots of honey on top :), with melted butter and vegemite on top :), or, my dad's specialty: mini pizza's!

Don't mean to be much of a wanker, but two lumps will do. Pip pip.
