Cauliflower cheese! With green beans! How heavenly (reference to Catholic school intended).

I clicked through to Christian’s Amanpour’s Wikipedia page and discovered that the school she had been to before your shared one was local to where I grew up. When the convent closed in 2006 we in my all girls grammar were beneficiaries of various bits of school kit including, I seem to remember, stools for the art room.

Christiane was in upper 6 when I started into 4 year - tall with waist length black hair, incredibly beautiful and frightening.

I’m glad you benefited from the closing of that convent! And if you make the cauli dish let me know how it goes.
