In Honor of William & Katherine

We had a twitter festival the other day trying to win wonderful Donna a free trip to London to be amongst all the hoopla of the Royal fairytale wedding. Unfortunately after days of nail-biting anticipation and utter disbelief, Donna did not win. But it was not because of a lack of creative and enduring friends who got pretty loopy as the day/evening evolved and the tweets persevered. I have to say that I had a blast being creative and dreaming of new things to say about Donna. As the evening wore on, my creativity dissolved as others became hilarious.

I wanted to share a few of my very favorites. Unfortunately I didn't follow DonnaToLondon, a new user created for this special occasion by the ever creative Becky, so I am sure that I missed out on very entertaining tweets. For those relatives of mine reading, Donna is not related. And if you don't know what Twitter is:

•  Twitter enables users to send and read text-based posts composed of up to 140 characters, called tweets, which are displayed on the user's profile page. Users can subscribe to other users' tweets – this is known as following and subscribers are known as followers or tweeps ('Twitter' + 'peeps').

Here they are, what I consider the Best of the Best, in no particular order (and I could not go back and see all of our tweets, so this is just what I could still access):

I know I had an essay written about the yummy goodness of my beans that I was sittin' there eatin' at lunch, tweetin’ about Donna McKee.  I commenced to describe the 5 different kinds of beans. In separate tweets.  Cause it was fun.  The next day, some legume society started following Donna McKee on Twitter.

Congrats Will & Kate, and GOOD LUCK!  Bets on how long it will take before they have a house cleaner?!?!??!!
