Instead I was looking after baby chicks and making green tomato chutney.

In Geneva daughter’s latest book, which she co-edited and to which she contributed, was launched in the UN library sponsored by the U.K. Mission to the UN in Geneva.  Much as I love daughter and take pride in her publications, the prospect of a 4 am start and flying to and from Europe in one day was not as appealing as chutney making and chick tending.
