Tip of the day

Never ask a child IF they need the loo... moodlum

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

Not sure it is a truly light read but it is easy reading if you know what I mean. It concerns a family in Canada and the parents are both killed leaving the teenage children to care for the younger ones. It is a story of hope, sacrifice and love. Very enjoyable and stays with you long after finished.
