Are apish manners desired by a hostess?
Oct. 3rd, 2020 04:57 pmI have a month's worth of notes, reminders of what I was going to write about but haven't. So let's just read the notes without further explanation:
- Mince pies and hot cross buns in the supermarket at the same time. They should be like lions and tigers and never meet.
- Uncle G's farm used for cross-border tractor sales.
- Free goldfish sign at the dodgy house across the road.
- 1910 coffee recipe made with eggs in, shell and all.
- Kim Next Door broke her foot mowing the lawn.
- Man named Orpheus Pledger.
- Someone spent $1 at a sari shop on my credit card and now I have to get a new one.
- My mother and her friend got into a ridiculous argument trying to give each other a twenty dollar note.
- My job is apparently being made permanent and dauntingly busy.
And now we're all caught up on September, except for this:
