In cider dealing

Don't let anyone say I don't know how to use a day off.
After all I've definitely had more days away from the tea rooms than I did last season.
So today, after opening up, this is what I did:
1. went to the cash and carry for mayonnaise and brown envelopes
2. walked the dog

3. paired socks (a lot of socks)
4. hid the unpartnered socks at the bottom of the ironing pile
5. added the yeast to my husband's homemade cider (as instructed)

I also ordered a goose for Michaelmas from the finest goose producers in the kingdom (Goodman's Geese) who happen to live in the village.
Delia and Jamie can't be wrong.
