The House of Three Milks Rides Again!


Soy milk for the visiting Bea; goats milk for Mrs Captain Butterfly; and "proper" milk for the Captain himself.  But I am older than the last time the House appeared, and while talking to Bea got in a terminal muddle about the milks - which all ended up in the wrong cups.  And the Captain's stern instructions about making two of the teas in the big teapot, thus economically using only 1 teabag resulted in my having to use about 4 teabags.

We are also The House of Two Teas, as I like Earl Grey but the Captain does not.

Bea of the North arrived on Tuesday - and Jackie joined us later to celebrate with champagne, nibbles and cheese and biscuits. A fun evening.

Today the Captain was away all day being dined at the Golf Club where he was giving a SUSSAR talk:

They donated generously, for which we are very grateful as SUSSAR is staffed by volunteers and runs on donations.  And they gave him an excellent lunch - roast lamb with all the trimmings, followed by apple pie and ice cream. 

Tomorrow the Brighton Branch of the family are coming.
