I do, Gus. Can’t seem to make a meal out of the ruddy stuff. The asparagus was British, fresh, kept in cold water after purchase and stir-fried beautifully. Should you want the recipe, I’ll send it tomorrow.

I am sleeping as well as many, Gus. Worry about one’s family is familiar to most ovvus.
Carinthia - this is the Chinese recipe book I bought:
I don’t know if this is anything like a pressie for SiL.
I like to wade into different cuisines as recipes can act as lightning conductors for inspiration. Speaking of which, Saturday looks a bit stormy for me - squeal!

I am drinking Medicinal Brandy & twisting wires for the nose-shapers for masks.
This is not hard work, or complicated, BTW. The wire is fine, & plastic covered.
The Brandy is helping with a boring task…

Looking for more brandy for our more than worthy Chatelaine xx, I came across this. Hands up those whose parents acquired such a thing and, also, those who loved them.
Anyhoo. Bedtime. Best nights, Cellarites,

Mine did many odd things, but that wasn’t one of them…
I suppose you’ll be needing Gin…
