I have a little addiction which Dr Beardy (Mrs) indulges me in once a year, usually at Christmas. Because we were away over the Yuletide, my indulgence was not satisfied and Dr B has very kindly allowed me to carry its delivery forward.
Last week, I managed to remember to order the final ingredient only for it to turn up as the wrong viscosity. That was returned. I reordered this week, the delivery arrived 20 minutes ago. I went downstairs to check that they had sent the right one this week, only to discover Dr B and Ms B the younger cleaning the kitchen floor. On enquiry, it would seem that although the correct substance was indeed delivered, one of them had dropped the pot on the floor and I whipped whipping cream was spilled everywhere.
I’m desire for trifle is looking like it might not be sated this year.
