    Made your Thyme and Lemon biscuits for your lovely book yesterday for Mother’s Day – absolutely yummy. Thank you.

    Loving your comments about being a new Mum – agree and I don’t think the love gets less when they move out, find partners, decide they want a big wedding and come back for the day, for lunch, for dinner etc. It just gets different. You worry then because you can only observe and not directly influence! All good fun.
