Celebrating the Royal Wedding

-
Like most of the world today... we woke up early this morning to 'attend' the Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton!  What a fun time we had celebrating this morning, even the boys got up early to watch this historic event!!

Lady Donna crafted this chocolate/biscuit cake which is Prince William's favorite! It is very good... and very rich!! Planning on doing some more celebrating later today and will enjoy a piece of it along with our Royal Tea Blend!!  Guests attending tomorrow's Afterglow Tea party will get a sample of this unique cake!

    It was a beautiful wedding! I actually stayed awake through it all --- from 1:00 am until 4:30 am --- then happily went back to sleep. It was fun checking on to Facebook and seeing other friends online while watching the wedding --- like a big party.
