Gougère

Busy day.  Freezing, and apparently we're not even in the big freeze yet.

Bizarre response from a client (the one who needed a stern talking to the other day).  I think more stern talkings to will be needed.

TallGirl went out for lunch with a pal and to the cinema, and I built part of a desk for her (obviously I was thwarted by not having the right brackets - a common problem around here as every DIY job seems to require brackets).  I also wilfully misunderstood the point of Instagram by posting a couple of old pics of TallGirl, just to amuse her friends, and annoy her.  (It worked.)

And tonight some of the neighbours came over for a committee meeting that was 5 minutes of meeting and 3 hours of chat.  And I hadn't even had my dinner.  Next time I'm definitely not making gougères - they clearly encourage lingering.  And the apricot and almond bites were probably de trop...  I did, however, learn some very interesting gossip, and some sad gossip (is it gossip then?  Or news?) and we moved Easter because it's not conveniently timed for us this year.
