Vellum & Vino had Happy Cheese added to the simple fare
(of a romantic interpretation) of post WWII life on Guernsey. No skimming here!
V & V readers enjoyed a version of the "forbidden roast pig" much to our delight.
Our hostess, Audrey, created a 23 hour slow roasted pork that was mouthwatering!
The wine charm of the month was aptly inspired by a part of the story recalling the bombing of London where the main character finds one solitary item has survived in her otherwise bombed out flat: a paperweight from her father that said Carpe Diem! Quite prophetic.
Some of our yummies....
We each had the most lovely take-away gifts: handcrafted stationary created by Audrey.
Goodbye Guernsey!
