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.

Showstopper

The boy’s after school cookery classes, taken to acquire a new skill as part of the Duke of Edinburgh programme, concluded today with what the Great British Bake-off would term a showstopper finale in the shape of a gingerbread house, structurally sound and decorated with a neatness and attention to detail never previously displayed in his 15 years; overall the course has been a great success, providing at least five Wednesday night meals, several tasty cakes and only one disaster, and preparing him for feeding himself better in these last ten weeks than in the previous 3 years of “food technology” lessons.
