Sunset from Hill House, Mount Helen. February 2024

Here is my dessert from last Sunday's lunch in the Three Horseshoes. A strawberry and champagne mousse. It was absolutely delicious!




The temperature today has absolutely plummeted and this coming week is expected to be very cold indeed. I've got a vegetable stock simmering on the stove ready for making a hearty soup later. We are about to have a full English breakfast for brunch, then tonight there will be roast chicken with all the roast chicken trimmings. Chicken and leek pie later in the week with the leftovers, plus chicken sandwiches and chicken soup. And there are loads of stews in the freezer ready to come out as winter warmers. We will probably have them with dumplings or with pastry and loads of mash!

Awfully glad I'm not in Melbourne mind. Not quite sure what you eat when the temperature is in the mid 40s day after day!!

  1. You eat icy poles and fruit salad and drink water. Or if you live in my house, you eat pizza and BBQs and drink wine and cider - because you can do so in the pool!
