A GLUM START AND A SPOT OF COOKING

First twin lambs born today: premature and feeble. (Lambing starts properly next week.)

Alex took the mother and the one surviving lamb indoors and fed the babe colostrum.   Sadly, to no avail – it died a few hours later.  The mother is thriving on extra rations and indoor pampering – outside is freezing cold and blowing a gale.   Nature is harsh and there’s nothing like lambing to write that out in bold.

Meals for the day: South Indian Mild curry (I LOVE this one!), Boeuf Bourguignon and FIERY Thai beef curry.
