Dear Readers,

It's now just a couple of days until the Royal Wedding!

(You know the wedding where Will marries Kate at 

Westminster Abbey?)  I, Paige, simply adore royalty

and weddings. So, I want to prepare a typical

English snack while I learn more about the festivities.

Our library has great cookbooks with English recipes

and I want to tell you about three in particular:

The first book is this one.  It has the call number of

J641.5942 HIL and can be found in the non-fiction

section.  I like the introduction section which gives

a good summary of foods from England, "England is

famous for its large cooked breakfast and for

after-noon tea, dainty sandwiches, and sweets served

with a pot of tea.  Takeout food also got its start in

England with fish and chips - pieces of fried cod or

haddock with thick French Fries served with salt

and vinegar."

This is the second book with the call number of J641.59 ALB.

Pages 121-127 have recipes from the United Kingdom such as

cucumber sandwiches, scones, "Bubble and Squeak," and

Shepherd's Pie.

The third book is a Kid's Dish series book and has all sorts of

great breakfast recipes, including the Peanut Butter and

Chocolate Chip Scones on pages 26-27.  Found in the same non-

fiction areas as the other cookbooks, it has a call number of

J641.52 FAU and my mouth is watering with this one!
