Oh, funny you should say soap nuts! I've been reading up about horse chestnuts as detergent. I used to use soap nuts a lot here! Aw - 6 months old!!!! Wow, that's really cool!!!! It's great not having so many cars in the UK, huh - or planes! The skies are so quiet!!!!! I made foccaccia yesterday - delicious. We only just got hold of yeast!
It's nice down in Somerset, but feelings are coming in waves. It's disappointing to have this year written off I guess, though people have it worse thanus. It's sad not being able to see any of our friends here or go to any of the places I wanted to see when I was here. A bit gutted, to be honest!
Hehe, we have also started making Foccaccia, we have loads of plain flour and its easy to make! I really do hope you get to see friends and do what you need to do soon, make the most of your time here post-C19! If you come anywhere near Suffolk, where I live, you should drive through Lavenham, you may of heard of it :) it's a real gem.
