I smiled when I read about your elderly neighbour. We used to live next to a very dear lady who had lost her husband in the war and who had never remarried. She lived on her own in the house next to us. The first time we decided to have afternoon tea together, she kindly gave me a few carefully handwritten recipes. (She was very forgiving of my first ever Jam Rolypoly!) I still have them and I smile and think of her whenever I find them in the pages of my recipe book. She passed away a long time ago now but I am glad that we shared a lovely connection to one another through food and caring.

She left the other day and said 'are you sure there isn't anything else you want to give me.' Well actually I said 'how bout some of this slice I made'. She was only kidding of course.<br />I gave half a dozen eggs to our neighbour yesterday and we also share fresh produce. The other neighbour has a lot of family gatherings and always pass on goodies to the kids. <br />I can remember a friend dropping off a warm casserole when our son was unwell as a baby once - I still remember that.<br />We know a guy on his own so I've made him easy meals for reheating. I remember the days when we would borrow cups of flour, milk or sugar from the neighbours and then Mum would always send us back with the replacement cup of whatever it was.<br />See you've got me started now. I could go on and on.<br />By the way I just showed our daughter your cookies and the little eyes lit up. I think she would love Auntie Belinda's cookies too.<br />KylieHome Is My Havenhttps://homesmyhaven.blogspot.com.aunoreply@blogger.com
