I’ve been working on the new curtain today. It always pleases me to use my Mum’s patchwork pin cushion. Look carefully, you can see her tiny hand stitches.
This afternoon I made our favourite cheesecake and made it into individual servings. You may know the delicious puds you can buy in individual dishes…..I’ve been collecting the little glass pots and today made a dozen cheese cakes. We ate two to test them! .
I used this recipe.
And a song, a most important song, from Bruce Springsteen.

First time I heard Bruce’s song. What ICE, Trump, Noem, Miller, et al, are doing is just so bloody awful. Let’s hope we can turn things around and get rid of Trump’s thugs.

Agreed.It makes us weep from this side of the pond.On yours it must be unbearable. We think of you all often and follow your news closely. I read Heather Cox Richardson each day and find her clear, informative and trustworthy.
We really hope the mid terms will change things around. Love to you. 🙂
