Went to The British Pantry this afternoon and came away with a darling little Union Jack teapot and another souvenir mug. Also picked up some British munchies to add to our little viewing party menu. The shop, in Old Town, opened in October and the shopkeeper seemed overwhelmed and frazzled from the response from customers flocking in for Will and Kate souvenirs. He told me that someone from CNN had been there this morning doing video on the place and there was a local newspaper cameraman there while Zack and I were there. By the way, Zack was pleased to know they had familiar gummy-type-fruit-snacks in England just like here. So we had to get a bag.
**All orders received during my spring break vacation have now been shipped. Another batch went out this morning and in the post box greeted me a lovely package from Michelle G. in the UK. Look at what she sent me!! It's a fabric flag/banner and it's terrific. My Royal Wedding display for Friday morning is shaping up to be quite a collection. Next step ... the menu!

Need to venture out (if it will ever stop raining!) and look for some Royal souvenirs. Love that scarf/banner! Didi mange to finish my own version of a Royal Wedding Sampler. Too bad no one in my area is interested in the Royals.
Tanya,
I'm not getting up early for the wedding, but will see it on TLC at 9 A.M. - when they rerun it. I'm mostly interested in her dress.
I loved the necklace in your previous post - and the other items they had at the website.
My new addiction is Starbucks salt and pepper popcorn! Just be sure and have a drink with you when you eat it - it gets a bit spicier the more you munch!

You are having so much fun, aren't you Tanya! I can't wait to watch the wedding on TV!
