Easter visiting
This morning was spent tidying up both the inside and outside of the house and cleaning bathrooms (I am certain that the people who design toilets never have to clean them, if they did, they’d design away all those dirt-trapping nooks and crannies on the outside!) My mother and stepfather visited this afternoon, along with my great-aunt, who is 80 and who we haven’t seen for at least four or five years. It was great to see her again. The visit went very well - we’d made hot cross buns and when our guests loved those so much they wanted the recipe, Barney first went to the computer and found the website (it was printed on the page I’d printed) and provided them with the recipe, then started to make more hot cross bun dough for them to take home with them
I did have to finish the dough, but they were most impressed with his culinary skills
They stayed for dinner (lasagna from the freezer, salad and home-made bread, supplemented with leftover calzones from yesterday) and admired both the aquarium and the “new” freezer
The boys were fabulous. There was a brief period during dinner when George was winding up Jack, and at one point Jack was explaining to everyone about “the bad finger”
but apart from that, they were helpful and cooperative and generally just perfect children
In: family, life, social stuff
