We seem to be blessed with the longest run of warm summer weather for many a year. Why we even had rolling thunderstorms and rain last evening.There was a little bit of relief up in the hills and down near the waters edge, but not a lot. I'm sure it was great out in boat.
Back in the day [circa 1936] store bought food was more basic and in short supply most of the year. Country food was prominent in the diet but then a lot depended on weather and migration patterns of species for it's availability.
The menu below is from the boarding school run by the Moravian church but with a lot of help and influence from The Hudson's Bay Company.

You certainly do have beautiful scenery around Nain in the summertime.
The kids at the Moravian school ate a lot of soup, and I see that on Monday 7 December the menu featured "leftovers"! Well, leftovers are often better the next day, let's hope that was the case.
And Fran does a marvellous job volunteering with the crisis team, I admire her for doing that. Give her a hug from me. It must be very hard to deal with tragedy in such a small community where everyone knows everyone else.
Scones and "pipse"?
I'm there!
Hug given.
I'm sure the scones and pipse are well fermented by now, should be some good.
