Little Debbie brand of snacks had some cakes with red white and blue decor (for the Fourth), with a more fondant type icing. I bought those for DH and told them they were to celebrate the Jubilee. Worked for him,

Little Debbie is one of the best things about living in the US.
That and chicken in a bucket.

Checked out the jubilee photos on BBC news, so nice to see Britain flying the flag.

It rained like crazy in town and made for a very wet and sad town fair event, which felt very English
Making sausage rolls tomorrow I think, for a little mini jubilee party for the kids...just need some Pimms, will have to be mugs of tea instead.

We had quiche, cucumber sandwiches, cheese straws, mini beef pies, mini victoria sponge and strawberry cakes. Oh and a few glasses of fizz.
I successfully made pastry for the first time

I got hammered. If you see a bloke trying to swim to the Queen's boat, that's me.

Yes, our world market was a bit of a let down too i did get the solar waving Queen (had to be done!) but got red white and blue crape paper streamers and made my own bunting, crowns at the party supply shop and union jack flag cocktail sticks. All in all it will be very festive with a little creativity world market online had so much better stuff, was a little misleading.
