Sorry I've been absent for a little while! I've been busy, if that's a good excuse!
Is anyone else slightly obsessed with the Royal Wedding? I am. I really wasn't excited at all until Thursday, the day before. I find royalty fascinating, especially since Kate Middleton is (was) a commoner. Also, people on TV were calling it the "wedding of the century." Also, my middle name is Catherine. So then I started getting excited. I found my Princess Diana Remembrance Beanie Baby in the box under my bed and proudly sat it on top of my bookshelf. I got a $9.99 replica of the famous sapphire-and-diamond engagement ring at Michael's. I found the recipe for Prince William's delicious looking Chocolate Biscuit groom's cake. I plan on making it soon. You can find the recipe here: http://www.oprah.com/food/Chocolate-Biscuit-Cake-Recipe/ Okay, so I'm really excited about the cake. It's made with butter cookies ("biscuits") and chocolate and doesn't require baking.You just need a special pan and put it in the refrigerator for a few hours. It looks delicious. They said this is what would be served when Princes William and Harry would have tea with the queen when they were little. Here's a picture!
Yummy deliciousness. So, I dragged myself out of bed before 6am Friday morning. Thursday night I was at an event for my mom's work and it ran late, so I didn't have time to finish my English assignment which was due Friday. It was the perfect excuse to go to school late! I got up at 5:45, just in time to see Kate Middleton driving to Westminster Abbey. My dad was making fun of my mom and me for watching the wedding. He wanted to watch CNN like he does every morning, but then he realized the wedding was on CNN, as well as every other channel. The ceremony lasted from 6 to 7, then I finished my homework. It's kind of hard to do homework at 7am, in case you were wondering. I don't recommend it. But I was really happy because I got to see Wills and Kate and the rest of the royal family when they came out on the Buckingham Palace balcony at 8:25. I came to school halfway through 3rd period. It was great. I wish I could do that every day, then I'd never have to go to Bio or Gym! We watched the wedding all over again in French class.
In case you've been living under a rock:
