Homemade mince pies with homemade mince!

Jami made the mince, I made the pies.  Ugly but delicious!

My fave Bonne Maman so far

 

Surprisingly not too sweet.

Court and Dort all clear

Forgot to mention that the intersection of Court and Dort, that had been blocked for MONTHS (because a culvert under it collapsed and needed to be rebuilt at the cost of millions) opened again last week!

Guava, and our Rolls Royce breaks down

Not a literal Rolls Royce, but our Dualit Toaster finally needs servicing.

Fortunately, we had a spare in the basement (probably was Thomas's at one point).  It would be terrible to be without a toaster when we're in the midst of getting 25 different kinds of jam!

Oh, and the Guava was also good. Not a particularly distinctive taste, though - I'm going to have to do a comparison at the end of the month to see if these are all just the same jam with different labels...
