Thirteen members of the Foodie group met last week to celebrate the Queen’s 90th Birthday. Tiaras were optional.
We began with an overview of “what the Royals eat” which took us from the gluttony of Henry VIII through to the more simple palate of todays royals. Our first dish was Eggs Drumkilbo, a favourite of Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother. This consisted of hen and quails eggs,lobster, sherry jelly and Marie Rose sauce,with a hint of brandy.
The “spirit” of the Digital Camera Group is to encourage and inspire the taking of better “pictures” as, against ” snaps ”
We meet fortnightly at the St Andrews Church room 2 – 4 pm.
Upcoming topics include:
How many times have we passed the Church of St.Margaret of Antioch, which is better known as The Marble Church at St.Asaph? This time we will stop and have a Blue Badge Guided Tour and will be told all about the fascinating history of this beautiful building and the significance of the Canadian War Graves, but not until we have had our morning coffee/biscuits at the lovely Oriel Country House Hotel set in beautiful Gardens.
