It was delicious, and not just because I didn't have to cook it! Something about eating food with royalty . . .
The intention was to have a picture taken with the Queen and Kernal Ken at the end of the evening, but we have learned yet another reason why the Queen is a supreme and absolute ruler - after grumbling about the photograph all night, she conveniently managed to get a phone call of "National Importance" right when it was time for pictures to be snapped. Tricky, that Queen. Somebody better keep an eye on her.
She and I did manage to watch the first half of Masterpiece Theater's version of "Wuthering Heights" together though. We both agreed that it is a truly depressing story - which we already knew but had forgotten, having read it eons ago - and that Heathcliffe is truly one of the most loathsome characters ever imagined. And seriously, the actor they chose has the perfect amount of crazy in his eyes.
Speaking of crazy, the kids are home from school for the next two days AND the Hubby is out of town for work. We'll see if the stars align and I get to blog about chores tomorrow. I think I'll go make them do some right now to see how my system is working. (Whoooo hoo ha ha ha, she says as she rubs her hands together in a maniacal way.)

You'll just have to catch her off guard!!! Keep that camera handy!!
Please tell Queen Vee that her adoring public was crushed that we didn't get to see her loveliness.
Your Royal loveliness was not prepared for a photo op but she did enjoy having the Lee clan over for dinner. It is so much more fun and rewarding cooking for a group as opposed to a couple. Nice happy photo Lee people.
A dinner with the Queen, how divine! Love these Sunday photos. Can't wait to hear about how you do chores!
You can't beat dinner with family.
As to the missed photo op, if at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Maybe the Queen needs a special crown to wear to motivate her to be in the pic.
