Before the pink rose bush shed all its blooms last week, Millie made rose petal muffins with rosewater glaze. They were sweet, delicate, and refined, and I pretended I was the Queen of England while I ate them in my stained pajamas.
I bet someone out there in internet land would like the recipe. (Queen Elizabeth, perhaps? C'mon, Your Majesty, you know they look good.)

Done. I just contacted the Queen through the website team and provided a link to this post. Also, not wishing to appear like the ignorant American I am, I looked up the proper way to formally address her and changed "Your Highness" to "Your Majesty." Apparently, the address "Your Highness" is used for princes and princesses but not for the Queen.
ReplyDeleteOnce I post the muffin recipe, I'll send it to her via postal mail. Just the thing for afternoon tea...
Can I have Millie?
ReplyDeleteThese look lovely and I for one, though not queenly, would like an update on this and others on buildabelly.
But I know how the whole 'recipe posts' go. I've had plenty of food pictures to post with recipes that I just put off. It isn't as fun as posting children and flowers, I guess.
Of course, maybe the key is to incorporate children, food AND flowers and then I will be motivated to post to my recipe blog.
I will...someday.
ReplyDeleteThe problem isn't just pictures that never get turned into blog recipes, but also all the missing pictures I mean to take but never do because I gobble the food too quickly! Such a horrible problem to have, hm?
These beautiful photos make them divine even through a computer screen. Delicious.
ReplyDeleteOh, Yummmmm! I've said it before and I will say it again..."Millie's Bake Shoppe" would make a nice title for a certain entrepreneur - in the making!!! How beautiful and delicious looking!
ReplyDeleteMuch love!
Oh those look so good! I wish I had some rose petals to accompany, but in their absence I would still love the recipe sometime!
