At September’s meeting members again watched a demonstration of 2 different recipes.

The first was carrot and parsnip gratin, which can be used as a main dish or a side dish to accompany Christmas dinner. The next recipe was a useful nibble or snack/picnic fare – Cheese, honey and Thyme bites.

Although several members were on holiday or could not make this meeting, we had six new members who were made very welcome and introduced to the custom of eating what we baked!

We are now a full group as we have over forty on the books, but if anyone else is interested in joining I can make a waiting list.

October’s meeting will be on Monday the 28^th, at 10.30 am at St Peter and St Paul’s Church Hall on Ruffs Drive.

There was no meeting of this group in August due to the Bank Holiday.

September’s meeting will be on Monday the 23^rd, at 10.30 am, when we will be making and tasting three more recipes.

We have welcomed new members at our last meetings, and they have blended in well with this social and friendly group.

At the July meeting members watched 2 recipes being made, mini vegetable toads and vegetable cobbler. After they had been cooked, we enjoyed tasting them including Toblerone cookies with the tea and coffee.

Although we were reduced in number, owing to the date change, everything was eaten, in true U3A fashion! A huge thank you again for the help from members with serving out the plates of samples and also with the washing up, and for your tolerance with my mistakes!

There will be no meeting in August due to the Bank Holiday. Enjoy trying out your new recipes.

The next meeting will be on 23^rd September.

There were fewer members at last month’s meeting due to holidays and prior commitments, but we all enjoyed a sociable time chatting and eating the cooked recipes.

A big thank you to those who helped, as my two beautiful assistants were both on holiday, I would have struggled without you! It all makes for a very friendly and sociable group.

Next meeting will be on Monday 22^nd July at 10.30 am.

We still have a few spaces left in the group so if anyone would like to join us, please contact me.
