Oh yes that lemon curd pudding would be very nice - my lemon tree is loaded
The bakery staff had a pot luck dinner last night for our new kiwis - received an invitation to tag along so decided after much indecision to make Alison Holsts chicken pie - the one with cooked potato slices on the bottom - you make it in a spring form round cake tin so for a very simple pie with very few ingredients it looks spectacular - travels well which was a bonus -the Grandad is going to do a few hours in the bakery - they are very uncomfortable about the Bakers salary continuing to be paid - but putting him on salary was the agreement to enable Robie hiring an overseas baker - the hours just dont suit most kiwi family Dads - of course who knew covid and a war would upset the apple cart
Found a little dairy in a box of my Dads stuff 1949 with compliments of The Joint Council Sick and Wounded Fund - wonder if it was the precursor to ACC - he only made only one entry he picked up 35 cows from Tutira station on Tuesday 1st then it must have been tossed aside -
Popeye my polio leg goes painfully bung quite often - the hospital gave me a walking stick with feet - hard to describe but it takes the weight off my sore leg and doesnÔÇÖt end up making my other hip which compensates when I limp getting sore - not sure now how I got it maybe my GP - especially good going up and down steps
I see Monarch butterflies are facing extinction - my huge tree that came down in the wind would be covered in hundreds now - they donÔÇÖt shelter in native trees -
Have the hook out and some lovely mohair might make myself a hat and scarf - got to kick myself into gear - spending to much time playing word games
