Sunday 29 January - a pudding (or three)

Ooops. Yesterday was clearly such an ‘easy peasy’ day that I completely forgot about buying a pudding for today’s lunch. 

Hastily defrosted some of last autumn’s apples (fallen from my aunt’s tree and conveniently peeled, chopped, blanched and bagged up just for me – how lucky is THAT??) and knocked up a quick crumble. Was looking forward to treating myself to a small portion as a Sunday treat, when along comes mother and Auntie (today’s lunch invitées) – both clutching puddings of their own ….  Mother’s was an enormous home made summer pudding (made with brioche in lieu of bread and laced with grand marnier) and Auntie's was a Marks and Spencers fresh raspberry and cream trifle.

 

 

OMG.

Suffice it to say the diet was put on hold from 2pm onwards…..

BAD DAY!
