Home Economics

Both kids were stars in the kitchen today.  For lunch the dining room was converted into a pop up restaurant and we feasted on an assortment of veggies, hassleback potatoes and Glamorgan sausages courtesy of Benedict:

Glamorgan Sausages are breadcrumbs, grated cheese and leek bound together with two egg yolks and then dipped in beaten egg whites and dusted with flour.  To cook they are fried in very hot oil.

As promised once Pip came home from school, she helped make the pancakes to celebrate Shrove Tuesday.  She stirred and I ladled and cooked and very good they were too!  At Pip's request we had cheese and tomato sandwiches, followed by a piece of fruit and then lemony pancakes and a mug of tea.  Delicious!
