October 11: Let Out Your Inner Child with A Tea and Biscuit Party on International Day of the Girl Child
International Day of the Girl Child is an annual holiday, and was created by the United Nations in 2012. It was designed to raise awareness of the rights of young girls throughout the world, and especially in lesser economically developed countries.
The foods associated with this holiday are tea and biscuits, which are consumed together throughout the world. There are many fun and easy ways to observe this holiday - for example, why not look up princess tea party ideas, and throw your own tea party? Here at Dishfolio, we love nothing more than an excuse to throw a great tea party!
Did you know that, even though the UK is often associated with tea drinking, it actually came 13th in the world for its tea consumption? Because of the traditional, homely nature of tea and biscuits, these two foods have long been the subject of great food photography.
