Peace, Rose and Diwali

08 Nov

The new post box topper is to commemorate Armistice day. I was pleased to see that a white poppy of peace has been included.

Very kindly, I was given a beautiful white rose which I have put in a tiny green glass vase that was my Mum’s.

We’ve been next door this evening at a Diwali feast and I made some Barfi  with ginger and almonds to take as part of the dessert. It went down well.

      Isn’t it? I wish I knew who made them so I could give credit. 🙂

    Those mailbox toppers are ingenious! I’ve never heard of barfi so I looked it up. I want a piece now. 😀

      I had never heard of it either. I looked up food for a Diwali feast and found a recipe for something I could make and take to share. It is absolutely delicious and I’ll take some to Roots tomorrow.
      Sorry I can’t send you any! 🙂
