Will Her Majesty Eat the Jubilee Pie?

Post #1 - June 2nd, 2012, 8:07 amIn her six-decade reign, Queen Elizabeth II has been given lavish gifts that include rubies, a shark-tooth sword and a diamond and platinum brooch.
But for this weekend's celebration of the queen's 60 years on the throne, she will receive one gift she may not have dreamed of as a princess: a pie for two made of a slimy, parasitic eel-like fish known for sucking the blood out of its prey.
