Waited in for a delivery that needed to be signed for, only for them to push it through letter box without signature.
Hmm. I tried some orange curd & clementine curd from Aldi recently. Not impressed - !
I'll stick to getting my preserves from our local animal charity shop. They're more expensive, but all 'home made' and all the money goes to helping the animals. Plus you get things like jumbly jam and orange pickle. Try finding that in Tesco - !

Oi, have you been raiding my jam cupboard?
Waitrose do a lovely orange curd, btw.
I don't eat enough curd for it to be worthwhile making, so I do buy the odd jar now and again to scratch the itch.Many years ago, my now late ex made some lemon curd. It was pretty good for a first attempt, but trouble was that there was so much of it, I was still having on my toast several weeks later - !

Anyways, time to feed the cats, and then it will be time to feed me.

This is precisely the problem. And the fact its shelf life (home made) isn't nearly as good as other preserves.
OTOH, home made lemon curd ice cream is the bees' knees

Ahh good, another human who understands their place in a cat occupied home - !
Of course
It's also a practical thing, as I'm less likely to get pestered for what's on my plate if they've got their own plates.
Although that never stopped a friend's Siamese... Frank used to steal from your plate while you were eating - well, that was until his Human servant was away for work and I cat sat for the weekend. Frank encountered curry for the first time, and he never stole from my plate again...

I'm going to dilute my petrol with some more hydros than carbons . What could possibly go wrong !
Our black bin was emptied today.
Years back I had a bread and butter pudding made with lemon curd. It was utter bliss.
In other mind-blowingly mundane news, I am documenting all our household car journeys for a few weeks to see what we can change.
