I went down to the farm at about eleven in my good clothes and took Rosie for a walk so Rachel could do the lunch. We went to the railway station for a coffee(for me) and a biscotti(for Rosie). It was cold and windy on Port Meadow but we survived and brought home good appetites. Sunday lunch is Rachel’s tour de force and this was no exception. The leg of lamb was very tender and cooked to perfection along with roast potatoes, mucho vegetables and Yorkshire Pudding. I know it’s not traditional with lamb but we all love it so she makes it anyway. Then she had a typical British bread and butter pudding with cream and custard which was yummy. It being Easter, there was a profusion of chocolate to finish off with. We heaved ourselves up from the table and got ready for the Easter egg hunt. Charlie had hidden eggs for each child and wrote a clue for the hiding place for each egg. I helped Adam because he can’t read yet. After the eggs were found, we went inside and collapsed in the sitting room to watch TV and snooze. It was a wonderful Easter. I have a great family.
