I made cupcakes...
with red, white and blue icing, of course!
I made a red, white and blue trifle... although blueberries are not really that blue!
And I made us some matching crowns so that we could feel like royalty for a day!
It was a fantastic village picnic despite the blustery cold weather. There was live music, games, a parade of crowns, food and drink and best of all lots of laughter with friends... not forgetting a toast to our wonderful Queen. A day to be proud to be British.
I dare say a lot of red and blue food colouring has been used over the weekend. :)
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a lovely time, it has been a great long weekend!

Brilliant crowns! I wonder how many cupcakes were made and eaten over the whole of GB in the last weekend?! Our local supermarket couldn't keep up with the demand for icing sugar!
ReplyDeleteWhat fabulous crowns. You british people know how to throw a celebration.
ReplyDeleteWe are just watching the concert now. So many people.
lovely Gina. I completely endorse your sentiment!
ReplyDeleteVery regal! Impressed with the crowns, and I want one of each colour of the cakes please!
ReplyDeleteAmen to that Gina! Your festive food looks marvellous and no doubt tasted the same. I love the crowns and hope the Queen is not exhausted by all the relentless celebrations.
ReplyDeleteVery impressive, cakes and crowns! Glad you both enjoyed it all.
ReplyDeleteRoyalty for a day, eh? I hope one's Duke of Edinburgh didn't pick up any nasty infections during the tour of the playing fields...
ReplyDeleteAnd very regal you both look too! Glad the weather didn't spoil things for you :-)
ReplyDeleteYUM! That trifle looks so yummy :-) Plus I love the crowns. How wonderful it must be being able to enjoy all the festivities with everyone on this the Queens Diamond Jubilee. Long may she live.
ReplyDeleteWasn't it all just grand? Great crowns.
