A 'Knight' To Remember

Once upon a time, a handsome King and his jolly round Queen went to visit a kingdom not so very far away to feast to their hearts content and to be entertained by jousting from the best knights of the realm.

They arrived in time to watch several young princes in the act of being knighted and even witnessed a proposal of marriage as a knight knelt down to his lady and presented her with a ring!

The King looked quite dashing that evening in his royal crown!
The Queen was also adorned in her royal gems as well.

There was food fit for a King {and his Queen} which included tomato bisque, a hunk of garlic bread, a large potato wedge, a breast and a wing of the kingdom's best fowl {chicken}, as well as a juicy and tender rib {the best part of the whole feast!}

Then to finish off the bounteous smorgasbord, there was also a helping of dragon skin {apple pie}.

All of which was served as the social etiquette of the kingdom dictates- which is without silverware!

The knights were an amiable group of fighters. All except the Green Knight who is the sworn enemy to all except those who reside in his own Kingdom! We cheered for the Red Knight who claimed a victory in his first joust but succumbed to the sword in his second battle.

All in all, it was a glorious evening and the King and Queen looked favorably on all of the festivities and arrived home content and joyous.

And they lived happily ever after.

The End.

I love Medieval Times! YAY! Josh and I went to Dixie Stampede in Gatlinburg during our honeymoon, which is the same idea, but the theme is "Old South". It was super fun too. I LOVE the food. It look like there's all sorts of fun touristy things to do there. We'll have to visit one of these days.

Is that MT in Dallas? If so, Bart and I went there on 12/31/02 (I was prego with Bren and we were there for the Cotton Bowl, that is how I know the date...oh, and it was my B.day)
It is a lot of fun and I am glad we went and I am glad you got to, too.
