Monday.

 


Took this photo in Westleton churchyard. found it rather moving. Newborn baby died sixty three years ago, and someone still remembers and cares enough to tuck roses beside the gravestone.

Quiet day today. Ann went over to her brother Tim's yesterday evening, so as to be able to spend a full day with Gran today. Been pottering in the workshop most of today. Knocked off an hour ago, cooked some pasta and reheated sauce for supper, followed by cold treacle tart and custard. Tidied up kitchen. Expecting Ann home any minute, so must go and put kettle on for tea. Goodnight all.

Cold treacle tart????

Hi Lori. Tart (in this case) is an open (or topless) pie. filled with a mixture of treacle and breadcrumbs, sqeeze of lemon - recipe varies- and baked. Served hot, with custard, or cold ditto. Well made, it is a superb pudding.
Regards, Mike.

Hi Lori,
Treacle is a semi-refined cane syrup, originally a by-product of the sugar refining industry, but for the past century or more it has been a universally (in the UK anyway) recognised dietary comestible in its own right. - very popular on porridge instead of salt for those of a sweet-toothed disposition.
