The Queen's granddaughter gave birth to her second child, weighing 9lb 3oz, at Stroud Maternity Unit in Gloucestershire on 18 June.
Her husband was present at the birth.
A spokeswoman for the ex-Olympic horse rider and former England rugby union star: "The name is Lena Elizabeth. It was just a name they liked."

The name Elizabeth is in honour of the 92-year-old monarch.
Lena is 19th in line to the throne and the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh's seventh great-grandchild.
She is the younger sister of four-year-old Mia Tindall, and also a second cousin to Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
Eighty percent of it is coming from the land as everyday products such as plastic bags, straws and bottles as they travel along rivers to the sea and then finish up being spread right around the world to end up even on the most remote stretches of oceans, farthest-flung beaches on Earth and the deepest parts of the ocean."

Lena, like her mother, is not an HRH and does not have a royal title.
The birth comes just over a year since Zara, a champion equestrian rider who won a team silver medal in the London 2012 Olympics, suffered a miscarriage.

How to cook Mushroom Soup

Mushroom Soup Yield : 4 servings Time: 30 minutes If the word “mushroom” conjures for you white buttons in little supermarket tubs, you’re not alone. But there is a big world of mushrooms out there, and you don’t have to be a forager to live in it. Wild mushrooms can be found in spring, summer and fall, but farmed mushrooms, grown mostly in the dark, are always around and a little easier to find than the ones hiding in the woods. So are dried mushrooms, which may be domesticated or truly wild and which are among the most flavorful ingredients you can keep in your pantry. This lovely soup is made with a combination of dried and fresh. It's delightfully simple – it comes together in about a half hour – which allows the complex flavors of the mushrooms to really shine through. INGREDIENTS   2 to 3   ounces dried mushrooms (like cremini, morel; whatever you like) ½   stick butter 1   sprig fresh thyme or rosemary 1   large yellow onion or 3 or 4 shallots, chopped 1 ...

Drinking Water Crisis in Rural Towns

Drinking water is essential for life, but many rural towns in the U.S. are struggling to provide safe and reliable water to their residents. For decades, these towns have neglected their drinking water systems, resulting in aging infrastructure, water quality violations, and financial challenges. In this blog post, we will explore some of the causes and consequences of this crisis, and what can be done to address it. Causes of the Crisis One of the main causes of the crisis is the shrinking population of many rural towns. As people move to urban areas or other states, the tax base and the customer base of the water systems decline. This means less revenue to cover the costs of operation, maintenance, and improvement of the water systems. According to a report by the American Bar Association³, in 2015, 9 percent of all water systems had a documented violation of water quality standards, exposing 21 million people to unhealthy drinking water. These violations were more likely to occur in...
