How would you like this for a Royal Lunch?

I do not believe BB, TTM and Al could make a dent in this

I'll skip everything with mushrooms, nuts, rhubarb and chocolate. The rest sounds edible, though.

I can only imagine the pressure on the Chefs to get it perfect!

Nah. Piece of pate.

*snicker*
 
Rhubarb is wonderful if enough sugar is added.
 
It's a vegetable I'll eat while humming.
 

Speaking of humming, I passed a gas station this morning and the price had jumped 18-cents a gallon overnight to, and this is abso*******lutely unbelieveable, $4.15.9 a gallon. My brain was humming a combination of Thus Spake Zarathustra and It's A Small World After All. This was the first time in my life to ever see gasoline at four bucks a gallon.

Oh no.  I hate to see what ours is.  At the cheap no name station near here it was $4.23  a few days ago.
 
Terrific.

Canapés?  I say, 'Can o' peas my ass:! That's a Ritz cracker and chopped liver! (Pentangeli to Fredo)
 
That's a Royal lunch alright.  Probably send a Commoner like me to a Royal flush!
 

Well,  I could go for the  smoked salmon  and duck terrine.  Along with the champagne  I would be a happy guest!
 
Incidentally,  my  granddaughter asked if  we could have  the meal that the  wedding couple were going to have tonight.  My  answer was  "Certainly!  Just as long as they  are having  ham loaf and  potato casserole,  you  can".  She  was a  happy child.

I was looking for muchy sausage on the menu.

Fischer forgot to ship it.

One Bubble & Squeak to go please! And could I have a side of Wild Mushroom and Celeriac Chausson? And a diet Dr. Pepper?
