Time 1235. In my kitchen waiting for the fruit toast to pop out of the toaster.
Sitting with pen in hand I’m in two minds as to whether I am glad this challenge is over with this post or sad. A snapshot of a brief moment. Fleeting thoughts now saved forever. It’ll give me back my book reading time not doing this but it won’t make that dashed book any more enjoyable. I wonder what time Mum will arrive. She’s really enjoying reading my manuscript out loud and it is helpful. We all like to be useful or needed. Or loved and wanted. Must remember to water that bonsai later.
Toasts up…..

Don’t you get raisins sticking to the sides of the toaster? [grin]

My baker (the one around the corner) does the most superb fruit (literally) loaf. I should say fruit and nut loaf. It has not only raisins but also apricots and nuts and spices. It is so chock full of fruit the baker can’t cut it in his machine as the fruit flies everywhere. Not fruit flies of the winged drosphophila variety but flying fruit. Such a wonderful sight but he refuses to do it. He will cut it by hand for you but no, Roger brings it home so he can cut it into widths half the size of a normal sandwich slice.😩 He is trying to save our waist lines.As it is so thin, the raisins and other fruit does not stick to the side of the toaster. (bigger grin).

I regret to have to say this, Irene … but I’ve gone back to hating you.
I would stop doing so if you would persuade your baker to open another shop in Pyrmont …?

Fruit toast=Raisin Bread?

Normally I would have said yes but we have a baker around the corner who bakes from scratch and his fruit bread is much more than raisins. He puts in dried apricots and a variety of nuts. There is actually so much fruit in it you can hardly see the bread which is holding it altogether. I fool myself that it is a healthy snack. 😀
