you kidding grandma? we had a full weekend of summer but we mustn’t forget where we’re from. it’s just about over for this year. we can have fun kicking through leaves which have been swept carefully into a neat pile! then if we are lucky, we can have snowball fights and make snow angels.
Or a hotline to whichever demigod is responsible for the weather.
If you can manage that, please could you request nice sunny days, not too hot, not cold and not too windy. Oh and please could it rain gently through the very early morning, maybe between perhaps 1 and 5 am would be good. That way the gardens and crops get watered daily but people are mostly kept dry (apart from those club goers who won’t care if they’ve had a load of booze). And we’d all manage to sleep better as it’ll cool down overnight.
Interesting comment about the jam AD. When we stayed with a friend in his cabin way out in the sticks in Missouri the breakfast he cooked for us, after the huge fry up, was followed by Apple Butter (jam) and toast, but out there they don’t bring it to a setting point, therefore one pours it on the toast. Absolutely delicious but this Brit brings her Apple Butter to a setting point so it is the same consistency of our regular jams and butters.
Orders taken. Returnable jam jars.

Now that sounds delicious. My mil used to bake a gorgeous lemon meringue tart perhaps I need to spend some more time in the kitchen. Or perhaps AD could introduce some new tempting lines!
