Miss McPearson’s Finishing School

Prompts = Pinky, Slant, Cuppa

Miss McPearson’s Finishing School was world-renowned for focusing on seemingly inconsequential details…

‘Now ladies, when we hold the teacup, it is of vital importance that the hand be placed just so. Notice my pinky, elongated, horizontal. Not at a slant, Meredith; we aren’t slurping a cuppa with the washerwomen and fishwives. We are refined ladies representing esteemed houses. Now, let’s bring the cup smoothly to the lips, sip, and come back to our starting point.’

‘Miss, when will be allowed to sip actual tea?’

‘When your tea manners won’t spoil perfectly lovely tea. Cups down, ladies. Let’s try again.’
