Introduction


Can each day be headlined by a word (or two) and represented by a single sentence?

Will they, in turn, weave together to form a tapestry of the year?

It may be more mundane than momentous, but it’s mine to share.

Pies


An interesting conjunction of pies in the last 24 hours: my supper last night was a wolf pie obtained at the Raby food festival, after being reassured by the Moody Baker (it’s his business name not a personal observation) ‘that no wolves were harmed in the making of this product’, it being named after the ale so deliciously combined with steak, potato and peas, all encased in a tasty pastry case; today’s dinner was also misleadingly named, my homemade shepherds’ pie containing neither shepherd nor sheep, but in its own simple way was equally scrummy as testified by the clean plates with the leftover portion reserved for someone’s lunch tomorrow.
