Lottie Project
“One of her meaty stews, bubbling with barley beans and carrots. Or rabbit pie. Mother has such a light touch when it comes to making pastry. Her fruit lattice pies are famous all over the village. And her suet puddings. If I could only have a plateful of Mother’s jam suet pudding and custard! Or even a big doorstep slice of bread and dripping . . .
I have to slice up the bread so thin here I slice my fingers too, and Louisa won’t eat her crusts even then. The baby likes his bread pounded into m...ush with warm milk. Mother would never dream of pampering us so. We always ate what we were given and chewed it cheerily. Well, mostly. But Louisa always plays around with her food and cries and complains something chronic, and Victor is extremely pernickety for a boy, fuss fuss fussing if he swallows a little lump in his custard. Sometimes it’s all I can do not to grab their plates and eat it up for them because I’m so hungry. I have to manage on nursery food too, no meat at all during the week, and just one slice off the roast on Sundays.MoreLess
