Let’s all celebrate the Royal Wedding by buying tea towels, mugs, weird tchotchkes and marmite. Or something. [Jezebel]
Random style looks from Cannes. [Go Fug Yourself]
I don’t think Meghan Markle would go for Diana’s dress designer. [LaineyGossip]
Was Whitney Houston molested by her cousin? [Dlisted]
What is Rudy Giuliani even doing at this point? [Pajiba]
So is the royal wedding cake going to be yummy or nah? [Buzzfeed]
Mac Miller is single and a drunk driver. [The Blemish]
Southern Charm recap. [Reality Tea]
What if Cardi B did all the sound effects in Star Wars? [OMG Blog]
Is Brie Larson killing it as Captain Marvel? [Looper]
His smile looks goofier than in real life and her face is somehow wider AND narrower on that plate. What did they do to them? LOL.
I would buy a spoon, though. I inherited my grandmother-in-law’s spoon collection from all over the world.
…and send it straight off to Samantha in sunny Florida!
My 89 year old great aunt is absolutely salivating over the prospect of new BRF tchotchkes. She has a china cabinet full of stuff commemorating every wedding and birth.
One of the minor pleasures for this dual national of checking out garage sales and thrift shops in Ontario, Canada is the high number of royal books and commemorative plates and spoons.
I wonder if PrincessK is buying anything today?!
Rudy and Orange one, dotards made in heaven. It’s so telling that the one who keeps sliding through, whispering in pretador’s ear is #PresidentMiller
And, yes, I want all the tacky wedding souvenirs.
Hey Boston CBers, I’m heading to your city for a week, any recs would be greatly appreciated.
Hey Lyla! I’m not in Boston but I visit my sister that lives there. Since no one responded I thought I would. Take a day to walk the freedom trail. It’s free and you can see a lot of the city. Oh and stop over on the north side where they have all the authentic Italian restaurants, you will not be disappointed. Also, the Victory Gardens near fenway are amazing.
The Maparium is worth seeing. Lots of people also like Harvard Square and the Coop.
The city is very walkable and you can get to Cambridge easily on the red line.
If you have a car check out Lexington and Concord. Very historical and lovely. Explore Cape Cod but go beyond Hyannis Port if you have the chance. If you like science, their science museum is excellent. Go to the Nirth End for the best Italian food you will ever eat. I grew up in Boston and it’s a wonderful place to visit.
Put me down for a spoon, if you must. I am only interested in the frock/frocks, and tiaras. I will make sure I have a good mug of builder’s tea to wash it all down, although maybe I should break out the Royal Doulton as a special tribute. It may even be the ones with the hand painted periwinkles! Good luck to both of them I say, I wish them every good thing on their happy day.
A friend of mine just arrived in England yesterday coincidentally to visit with her husband’s family (he’s English). She has already been given strict instructions to bring me back a mug!
Ooohh, I like the one from the Royal Collection or Fortnum & Mason’s, Cath Kidston’s decent as well but I think they are all sold out.
She brought me back one from Will and Kate’s wedding too (coincidentally she was over there at the time too!) but I can’t remember where she got it from.
Emma Bridgewater has done a commemorative one as well. There are loads here. I hope she’s able to get you one, whichever shop it may be =)
As long as their faces are on it I’ll be happy with it! 🙂
Are the commemorative spoons functional? Could you use one to stir your coffee or tea in your new mug? Stirring the mug with the mugs?
I’ve bought Marks and Spencer’s commemorative biscuit tin and I’ll be getting a mug from the Royal Collection and something from Fortnum & Mason. Cheers to Harry and Meghan! 😀
Dear Lord no.
My tea towel came today! I had wanted a mug but they were too hard to come by online.
I bought a couple of pairs of boyshort underwear in a limited-edition crown print as my souvenir from William and Kate’s wedding. Nothing more British than M&S knickers! They were super comfy, too.
