[@enola60]

The Queen was Blessed to have you as a Chef.🫒

[@jddo3298]

Chef McGrady, this looks so good, as do so many of your recipes. I've tried several with wonderful results.... going to give this one a try in the next few days. I'm sure it will be made again and again. Chef McGrady, Thank you for your wonderful recipes, but mostly Thank You for sharing memories of your time spent as Royal Chef along with interactions with the Royal Family. There is a Love, and tenderness in your eyes, and voice, as you recall these special moments. Love your personality! You wear your Heart. THANK YOU! God Bless you and Keep you Safe in HIS Loving Embrace. Have an AWESOME week ahead. I'll pop back in to let you know that this recipe was a hit (you know it will be, it has The Queen's approval, lol) Remember hat and sunscreen! Best wishes. *LK*

Morning Darren, I just caught some of the Trooping of the Colour. The Guards are looking excellent as always, bands included. Always makes me feel home sick even though I'm now a Citizen here in the US. At 58 years I've only ever known Her Majesty as our Queen the rock that holds us together. Anyway, look after yourself. Best wishes to you and your family. Simon 🇬🇧🇺🇸

Wow! That looks fabulous! I am sitting next to a bowl of blueberries and strawberries while wondering what type of treat I can make with them. Then I see this video. I don’t think I will make the lovely parfait, no mixer available. However, I do have an ice cream treat in the freezer! P. S. I LOVED the photo of the Queen shown in the early bit of this video! Her smile is absolutely gorgeous!!!👑!!!
