Strange that just a couple of days ago I was once again in Richmond for the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton. (No the wedding was not in Richmond. I was in Richmond!) Thirty years ago when Prince Charles married Diana I awoke at three in the morning to watch that wedding from Virginia. We lived in Fredericksburg then.
I remember discussing the details of the wedding with my hair dresser who was from London. It was fun to hear his thoughts on the event since to me he was an "insider." The moral of this story is the years pass quickly so enjoy every minute to the hilt!

Growing up in Nashville, teas were my favorite event. My mother gave many and attended even more. I loved the tiny sandwiches and the sweet Russian tea in beautiful china cups. Sometimes there were tiny biscuits the size of a quarter stuffed with ham and butter. Yes, these teas were the Southern version of High Tea but they did not take a back seat to whatever they were doing in England.
For my Royal Wedding Tea I made Cranberry Scones, Chicken Salad finger Sandwiches, Cucumber Crescents, Tomato Sandwiches and Red Velvet Mini Cupcakes.
