I’ma Get Medieval on Your … Owl!

August 26, 2015 by WendyB

Here’s a tweet for history buffs. I keep looking at it to have a laugh. Click the image to go to the source and see the funny illustrations.

I’m really upset that I’ve never visited the cat bakery before!

I’ve also found a replacement for the many now-defunct “royal” Twitter accounts I followed in 2010. Henry VIII himself is sharing his thoughts on making heirs and eating cake here. Judging from this to-do list, it’s good to be king.

    We should all adopt (and adept) Henry’s to-do list for ourselves!

    My spam word was “empress”. I’m declaring myself Empress of Cake for today!
