I woke up with a jolt this morning, sun pouring onto my bed. “I’m missing it!”
Went down and got some oats started as I caught up on the big event. I would have loved to watch every bit of royal wedding media this week, but life has been so busy! Glad I got to see some of it live – including the kiss!
I chose my most royal linens from my grandmother and a blue willow plate for the occasion
Wedding Oats
1/3 cup oats, milk 1/2 cup water 1 tbsp chia seeds Half banana Pinch salt Sprinkle cinnamon 2 tbsp cooked wheatberries, stirred in at end Vanilla Crumbled FANNEtastic Oat Puff Ball + Sunflower butter
There was no time to make tea with breakfast, so I put some on after. I searched my tea jar for something more English, but couldn’t find any! Peppermint it was.
Happened to snap this photo to document my morning entertainment
And just HAPPENED [I swear an accident!] to capture this!
So so glad they kissed twice 
Congrats to the newlyweds!
Fun morning!
We’ve got a stunning weekend ahead – 75* and sunny. I’m going to Body Pump this morning and then I’ll be joining Matt at the bakery for a while and also tomorrow morning. Lots to do to get this bakery going!

Aw, I missed the kiss this morning! Thanks for sharing that
Enjoy your day, Kath!
Love the linen! I’m sure they’ll be replaying this wedding a hundred times over the next week!
I missed the kiss — so thanks for showing it here!
And I love that you still have that chalk drawing of the vase of flowers on the wall — I thought that was so beautiful!
I watched the whole thing at the gym while I ran on the treadmill.
…it sure made 9 miles go by fast!
I watched the entire wedding while getting ready for work this morning, and got up extra early to watch everyone arriving before the start. I had to drive to work after the ceremony, but managed to see the kisses live once I got there. Woo-hoo. Love it!
It’s a happy day.

I’m glad the oats got in on the wedding hype!
Yes! I was at the gym too and all the girls (and some of the guys) were watching the wedding on the individual TVs. So fun!
Enjoy your sunny weekend
I got to watch it at the gym this morning (we don’t have television at home) it was so nice to see something happy on the morning news!
And those oats do indeed look very regal in that lovely blue bowl!
I’m amazed you caught the kiss – it was so quick! And I find it equally amazing you saw it with breakfast..it happened at 1.30 here!
I watched the wedding while I was on the treadmill at the gym this morning and loved it! Such an exciting start to the day. Have a great time at Body Pump this morning and good luck with all the bakery stuff!
I loved watching the wedding! I thought Kate looked absolutely stunning! I liked how they kissed twice too! So cute!
Love your english inspired breakfast. The blue bowl is perfect for this morning
Goodness I can only imagine the nervousness they must feel having a wedding in front on the entire world! man… I missed the whole thing too, sleep was worth it with a half marathon on Sunday!
that drippy sunflower seed butter looks AMAZING!
OH man, I could care less about this wedding stuff, haha. I’m pumped about this nice weekend!
I wasn’t super into the wedding, but it’s nice that they kissed! Makes it seem a little less transactional, ya know? I can’t imagine having an intimate wedding with the whole world watching!
I only saw the end of it while I did my strength training. I loved the music and her dress! Have a great day Kath!
Beautiful linens from your Grandmother
Happy SUNSHINE-Y FRIDAY!
Days like this are one of the few times that I’d like to have television, but we watched some recaps on the internet this morning.
Love that you made “Royal Wedding” oats – so cute. Enjoy the beautiful weather! We’re going to have some too, all weekend long. Thank goodness.
I love all the wedding coverage on all the blogs this morning!!! How lucky that you were able to capture that kiss!
Glad you caught a glimpse of the ceremony! I completely slept through.
I have loved every minute of this wedding coverage!
So amazing!
happy weekend!
How fun – I totally missed it, but seems like many bloggers and people were watching.
Yay! We have a warm upcoming weekend ahead as well. I’m so excited for it.
Love that you captured one of their kisses (there were two!) – she looks SO beautiful and I’m so happy for them.
PS – if I had to choose between being Kate Middleton and those Wedding Oats? I think I might go with the oats! They look so good!!
Wedding Oats – how cute. I only watched a tiny bit of the ceremony because I was on my way out the door to work – I saw Kate enter the church and she looked stunning!
Warmest congrats on the wedding and of course the lucky couple. The food looks scrumptious. Didn’t see the TV show. Didn’t know it was on until I read this blog. You are a talented vegan cook.
Make it a wondrous day Kate.
I’m not a vegan cook!! But thanks anyways!
You call Kath a vegan cook when she obviously uses milk in her breakfast (and you would easily be able to see from older posts she eats meat) and then you call her Kate? Sometimes read a bit before you comment perhaps?
Love the hats!
I DVR’d it so I will be watching it when I get home later!
Wedding oats- haha love it! In spirit of the Royal Wedding, my snack was clotted cream,jam and fresh strawberries…oh wait I mean Greek yog, fruit preserves + strawbs!
hehe! Your real snack sounds much more appealing!!
I got to watch a little bit of the wedding while at the gym, it is pretty romantic!
I didn’t see any of it! I haven’t been following other than 3rd party tidbits from my mom. heh
I love waking up with a jolt, though! The feeling of being 8-years-old on Christmas morning, but when you’re an adult, is pretty awesome! haha
i didn’t think i was a royal watcher person…..until this MORNING!
they looked so happy and sweet on each other!
I meant to wake up super early and head to the gym while watching on the treadmill. It didnt happen, but at least I caught some of it before heading into work.
I was in cville for work on wednesday and SOMEHOW stumbled across your bakery location – I think I even spotted Matt working inside! It looks huge in there
Oh how fun!!! You should have snagged Matt for a hello – he would have been excited
I love that you tried to keep the theme and find some English tea
hehe.
while you have many great oatmeals, this one looks particularly regal!
I woke up in time to catch the kiss too! Cute, if a little perfunctory. My sister then called me up to complain that I hadn’t managed to find a prince for a boyfriend and release her from her life of drudgery. Anyway – nice pics! You always manage to make oatmeal look so appealing, which can’t be an easy task.
I haven’t been too interested in the royal festivities, but I definitely want to see the replays!
I just loved the wedding! This kiss was the only part I caught live so that was extra exciting
. I think the Royal family is about to get a whole lot more interesting again!
Loved the wedding! Watched the beginning at the gym, and caught the kiss before work! It made my morning!
Glad you caught some of it! I made the mistake of waking up 2 hours earlier than I needed to…haha.
I want to be a princess now!
Ahhh seeing sunflower butter gets me all warm and fuzzy!
I woke up thinking “I am missing it” to! All night I dreamed about it and getting up early to watch it…lol! It was so lovely and made me so misty eyed! Enjoy your 75 degree day and I’ll enjoy my 35 degree day
I actually got up around 5:30AM to watch the The Royal Wedding. And I am glad that I did not get up any earlier, because I just wanted to see a little bit of the hoopla before she went down the aisle, not everything. The wedding was beautiful, and she looked stunning!
The Wedding Oats were perfect for the occasion

I was so embarrassed that I actually woke up for the wedding that I multi-tasked and got my workout in early.
Wasn’t her dress awesome?!
Oooh, royal oats indeed! I missed the whole wedding. I think I would have had to get up at 2am to see it here, haha. I went to bed at 1am, so maybe I just should have stayed up. Have a great weekend!!
Of course we watched the wedding – and loved every moment. I even woke up my daughters early!
aw! i totally missed it but i’m sure there will be plenty of recaps!
I loved the double kiss, it was a true storybook wedding!
I love these kind of celebrations when the whole world seems to come together for a happy occasion!
I missed the actual wedding too but I started watching it when I woke up at 7. I”m glad I got to see the kiss! It was so sweet.
I missed the kiss! I was en route to work!
I watched the entire thing while working on some other things. It was easy for me though, since it started at noon our time. Her dress was so classic! Loved it!
Kath- I’m in love with the clock on your wall. Where did you get it?!
Target, I think, a few years ago
I’m studying for finals right now, so I opted out of the wedding watching, but it’s such a fun event even for us in the US! Glad you got to catch a bit of it!
Cute theme for this morning
Very “English” with the votes for women mug (reminds me of Mary Poppins!) and the fresh linens and tea spoon!
It’s just a good day. They looked so happy and it was actually really fun watching the events!
Lol, I am still waiting to see the kiss
The two of them look very happy.
Loved the spoon you used this morning.
I know you are so busy but I’ve been wondering if you think that getting a food processor is a good idea if I already have a Vitamix. I want to start making my own nut butters, hummus, banana soft serve, raw dessert balls, etc. Does a food processor handle these kinds of foods better than a Vitamix? Thanks for your time, Kath, and for ALL you do!!
I really like having both. The FPs are only about $129 – a lot less than the Vita-mix! I don’t think you can do chunky things as well in the vitamix – like nut butters. You can also slice and grate in a FP. I think it’s a good investment!
Thank you, Kath!:)
I watched the wedding from 5:50 to 7:15. Darn it all – I had to miss the kiss! I was actually waiting for it right after they were pronounced but then again, that’s just not the English way.
Love your royal wedding linens
I think Wills and Kate would approve.
Your oats are PERFECT for a day like this!
How do you make your tea? You don’t just turn on a kettle?
If the bakery and blog thing don’t work out (which, uh, who are we kidding? it IS) – then please foray into photography.
You make me want to eat your linens…;)
Hey Kath – Your oatmeal always looks WONDERFUL and I would love to steal some of your recipes, but I can’t eat bananas. Do you have any recipes that don’t use bananas, or do you have any recommendations of what to substitute? OR, can I just leave it out?
You can just leave it out – but pumpkin is a great subs! Or chopped apples or pears too. I have a few recipes that use other fruits on the tribute page.
I woke up with a jolt, too…but by 6 a.m. Pacific Time, the wedding was long over! I did catch all of the highlights on Good Morning America, though…beautiful!
No worries they’ll be replaying the wedding for months to come
Love the breakfast, yum 
Mmmmm your oats look so good~ yeah like Jenny said, I’m sure we’ll hear about it till our ears fall off
I didn’t watch the wedding this morning, but I did watch some highlights later. Of course the kiss was included in the highlights! So nice to wake up to sun!
We’re three hours behind you, so I missed the kiss! I caught it on Youtube though
So cute!
Love the kiss picture. We should call you lucky trigger fingers
Hope you had a good body pump class!
Yah for the royals!!
I watched part of the wedding, took my walk and got back just in time to see the kiss. I loved her dress and her smile. She was just beaming. I feel so connected to all of the other women in the world who were following, messaging, texting and talking about the details. I love weddings but this one was stunning in Westminster Abbey.
I watched 7 hours straight of live coverage – couldn’t get enough!
Luckily for us down under, the wedding occured between 8pm – 11pm, so it made for a lovely night. Pretty dress!
