Queens Birthday Cupcake
Pussy-cat, pussy-cat,
Where have you been?"
I've been to London
To look at the Queen"
Mother Goose
Don't I wish!! That I'd 'been in London to look at the Queen' that is, instead of being curled up swallowing antibiotics at regular intervals.
It's Queen's Birthday today a public holiday in most of Australia, it's a day when the monarch's birthday is celebrated. It's not the "actual" birthday of our current monarch Queen Elizabeth the 2nd whose birthday falls on April 21st, but rather a set date for a Queen's/King's Birthday celebration: in Australia the second Monday in June.
Today the Order of Australia and other honours are announced, however for most Australians it marks the last public holiday as we well and truly settle into winter.
Back tomorrow, Happy Baking :)
