A party with the queen
Wednesday, July 9, 2008 | 12:01 am
More proof that there'll always be an England comes today with news of Queen Elizabeth II's first garden party of the summer at Buckingham Palace. And what a party it was: tea (with milk, please), those kinda-gross sandwiches with the crusts cut off, and thousands of matronly ladies wearing millinery from the Hermione Baddeley collection.
The Buzz invites the queen to attend our garden party -- just leave the cucumber sandwiches at home, and fill up that empty handbag with liquor, OK?
For party nosh, the queen might consider a new potato chip product that's flavored with beer. But if she's truly as British as roast beef, she'll drink her brew, not munch on it.
She'd probably prefer gin-and-tonic-flavored chips, anyway.
When the party's over, we'll either call the queen a cab or let her crash on the couch. We wouldn't want her to do something stupid and dangerous, as did a man charged with drunken driving in Chelan County whose blood-alcohol level allegedly was nearly six times the legal limit.
We'll feed her beer chips for breakfast.
