Royal Wedding Texas Style

Prince William and Kate Middleton will marry Friday, April 29 on *St. Catherine's Day at Westminster Abbey. I really wanted to get a hold of the royal menu and share it with you, but I guess I just didn’t have enough clout to pull that one off. The royal wedding really excites me and reminds me of one of my prior careers.
