Sausages!

Tuesday 28th April: Happy New School Felicity! Today was hot again, in the low 20s and sunny. I got several loads of washing done and dry. The forecast had been for heavy rain the last few days and other parts of the South Island have had flooding but so far it has been unseasonally warm and dry.
In the morning we schooled. It was so lovely outside we did some of our lessons in the front garden. After lunch we unpacked the meat mincer we bought on Sunday and minced a pork shoulder joint. Then we went off to the 'for sale' house to measure up the bathroom to work out if we can split it into two bathrooms, then returned home to turn the minced pork into sausages. This is our first attempt and we were all involved. I was in charge of filling the casings, Edward was in charge of the on-ff toggle switch, Peter was events photographer and Jonathan was ... was... helping!
After dinner (not the sausages - they're in the fridge for tomorrow) I went off to the Gym Club AGM and Committee meeting and somehow came home as Secretary!
