Thistle

Thistle

I had a hard time last week locating almond paste for a cake recipe I wanted daughter L to try for me. Thanks Denise, from 'An English Girl Rambles', for sharing it.  I was finally able to find it.

This is a heartwarming story I read in the newspaper the other day. A lonely elderly couple were soothed by police in a show of humanity. They cooked them plates of pasta.

    I can't use almond paste or marzipan due to miss 21s allergy.
