a perfect spring radish sandwich

yesterday, i threw a baby shower for two good friends.  i made several types of tea sandwiches.  my favorite was the radish sandwich.  i picked up some fresh radishes from a local farm, woodland gardens.  they looked so lovely with the radishes sliced thinly.  it made me crave a picnic!
