The hat is the extent of my official Royal Wedding outfit. I'll wear it with my jammies. 4am is a little early to put on a fancy smancy outfit...
Since I'll be glued to the TV all day, I'm doing some 'make ahead' dishes. Here's the day's menu:Whole Wheat Cranberry Scones (not my recipe but very, very good. Serve with your favorite jam)
Assorted Tea Sandwiches
Curry Egg Salad (regular egg salad with a dash of curry powder)
Apple and Cheddar (sliced apple and cheddar with honey dijon mustard)
Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese (this one is pretty self-explanatory)
Ham and Mustard (again, self explanatory)
Bangers and Mash Pies
Instead of having bangers, mashed potatoes and mushy peas, I'm going to take puffed pastry and make a pie out of diced banger sausage, potatoes and peas. I'll post the finalized recipe once I make it. The point is that I can make these up tonight and they'll be ready to go tomorrow evening.
And a large pot of tea, of course! And maybe a Pimm's Cup or Pimm's Royal or two...
It's gonna be a partay!
