Ok, I know, I'm not British. But it sure seems like everyone on this side of the pond is really polarized about the upcoming British nuptials.. Me? I don't care a whit, everyone is trying to play this that she's a commoner and all.....PLEASE! I'm a commoner, she is not a commoner. She may not hold a title but she's got lots of money in the family. Enough to get her into a very prestigious university so she could hang out with the Prince!
I don't dislike the British. I happen to know a couple that are simply charming and very polite. I have hosted a couple at my home. I just don't care about the wedding. What I do like is tea!
That's right, I love a cuppa! I have a hot tea almost every afternoon with a couple of my new favorite cookies. Now normally, I make my own, but I do have a couple of favorite store bought ones that I squirrel away from the family. I love those little butter cookies, I love Pepperidge Farms dark chocolate milano cookies and my my new favorite cookie is from Nabisco. They are the new Newton Fruit Thins..the cranberry citrus goes so well with a cup of Earl Grey or Constant Comment tea. They have a chocolate version but I haven't tried them yet!
I love to take a few minutes in the afternoon and sit and enjoy a cup of hot tea and a cookie. I don't eat the entire bag, just one. It just takes about ten minutes to turn a hard afternoon into a little more enjoyable one with a cup of tea and a cookie. I can see why the British love their afternoon tea........not so much their royal weddings!

But think of all the great Royal Wedding tea mugs you're missing out on!
ReplyDeleteOh man! You are right! He! he!
ReplyDeleteThis post makes me smile, and wish it wasn't so close to dinnertime here. :) As to a favorite cookie...I'm boring in that I'm partial to those shortbread ones in the red plaid box! And with a hot cup of Darjeeling.
