Mrs. M was looking like her old self and in good spirits when I saw her this Easter weekend. She had had a nice visit to her old friends' place for Easter lunch and the topic invariably turned to food and drink. Topical too as she had just found her old recipe notebook and showed me some of her favourite things to cook. There was the Fish pie and the Lemon Cheese cake. The buttery biscuits and Walnut salad.

And then there was the all-time favourite of the couple — Gin and Tonic Jelly! She would make them often, set for a few hours in large moulds and Mr & Mrs. M would enjoy them as they chatted the evening away with friends and family.

Happy memories of a happy life ❤️
