In the old pre-1950 New Zealand cookery books, measurements for flour and sugar are given in 'Breakfast cups' and 'Teacups' - the breakfast cup being a large generous size for the first cuppa of the day, and the teacup a smaller one like the dainty china described above.

And what is on her board even more poignant right now. "Remember, there is no such thing as a small act of kindness Every act creates a ripplewith no logical end"

Just picked up to come back online here. I enjoy both tea and coffee but I am a fussy duck! Love Cha nui Earl grey. Sometimes on a budget I have to limit the expensive lines. (just like my wee dram, (which is VERY rare on my budget now) the visitors get the good stuff lol). Just taking that time out for that cuppa puts the world to rights. May you all continue to enjoy!

My family drink coffee, as in my parents and my brother have always had a coffee first thing in the morning but I just can't do it. Apparently I have never had a 'good' coffee but I think it's never going to do it for me. Anyway, it's the social part that's important so I always have coffee on hand for those who want it. Enjoy.

Hi Erica.. thanks.. and Happy Birthday too :-) I'm glad all is well.. am in the planning and making goodies stage of organising Jenni's 21st party for next month.. have made 2 x tomato relish, tomato sauce, bottled beetroot, made basil (several kinds I've grown), parsley and lemon balm pesto with macadamia's added, mint sauce, have tomatoes drying in my oven - all for the party.. and all using veges and herbs I'm growing.. feels very good to have them to make delicious party goodies. I've also preserved plums, made plum jam and have a large tray of prune plums drying in the oven - they taste very goooood!
This all reminds me of discussions with you on preserves, etc.. in the Preserves thread.. when we were both making lots of goodies.. :-)
Jenni has a few minutes ago received an email from her big brother in Brisbane to say he's coming for her party - has been a surprise till now.. she's one very happy little Sis..
Take good care.. hugs..
