State-by-State: South Carolina

"P is for Palmetto

our official state tree.

It's also a symbol on our flag,

respected by you and me."

"E is for the Eastern tiger swallowtail,

a colorful butterfly to see.

Flying from flower to flower,

flitting and soaring, wild and carefree."

The girls and I chose to make these butterflies from HungryHappenings.com for lunch today.

They were so easy and the girls had so much fun "making" their lunch!

Since the first commercial tea farm in the United States was in Summerville, South Carolina, we also made some tea to go along with the Butterflies for lunch.

"Polly put the kettle on,

we'll all have tea.

South Carolina's favorite drink

Tea begins with T."
