Silly lamb

Cheesecake and Mum
The children requested sour cream cake for the forthcoming festival. This was made to a recipe that my much-missed mum used to make. She had taken the recipe from her friend Mavis (also now departed).
I opened my battered recipe book and there was mum’s writing on a piece of paper I had stuck in the book. My heart ached.



Dr Google gave me a new recipe for a sour cream cake

The corner is missing ( I had to try it – good!)
Nigel’s eaten too much pigeon pie and crashed out!


Mabel eventually got her treat – a spoonful of egg mayonnaise

She’s asleep too. Peace at last!

I cook and Mabel sits in hope





So I gave her a tiny piece of cheese as compensation. Nigel is outside enjoying a pigeon that he caught!
A still night and a beautiful sky
