Happy St David's Day to my very dear Welsh friend!

Today's 'Memorial of the moment' theme is food! From the savoury to the just too sickly for words! And here they are: (Shame we don't have any cheese to go with the Krackers and Branston - No! I hear you scream, there's enough cheese there to go round!)



Yesterday, I made pancakes. Why do we only have these once a year? (apart from when we go to Brittany and have them on a near daily basis!) They are lovely, (when I get the mixture right). But I only like them with sugar and lemon (in France, I have them with onions and emmenthal, and my favourite sweet crepe filling is......wait for it..... pears, chantilly, and chocolate (or cherries instead of pears but that's not always offered) - yumm yummm. But somehow in blighty I only fancy them with lemon and sugar. It's the same with crumpets. I just love them, but only with butter and marmite - not jam or any other topping. Weird eh?

Call me shallow but when I saw David Cameron on the TV talking about his new ideas I couldn't concentrate on what he was saying but just kept looking at his fantastic kitchen! Reminds me of Wood and Walters once playing women who are discussing the previous night's news - " Did you see the 10 o'clock news?" "Oh, yes, shocking wasn't it" "Yes, absolutely shocking, I couldn't believe it" "Yes, what was she thinking wearing that blouse with that jacket!" haha

Why does my weather pixie never put a coat on even when it's -1c brrrrrrr. Makes me cold just looking at her.
