Back to the RAFFLE after the Cruise










Tonight I went back to the club, to try my luck with the Raffle again, and the very first number called, I just happened to have it, and not being used to winning anything lately, I almost failed to go to claim it, but...I made it, and it was a "Leg of Lamb",so I'm very happy that I went, also was advices that our next Fishing trip will take place on the 3rd. Sunday, instead of the 4th. as it usually does.
This Christmas, I'll be doing the cooking,so I'll have to think on what to cook and how to present it after it is cooked!
I'll include some photos taken on the "Pacific Dawn",have a look at the items that were on display on the last evening aboard, some were made with Sugar, and some with Pastry.
There won't be any pictures of "Figs" this time, because I did not cover the tree, to protect them from the birds, (I did not think that they would ripen before we returned from the Cruise)But they did, and so the birds had first taste of them, but I have now placed the net over the Tree, so the main crop will be protected!

Note the nice flower that I discovered after we returned from the Cruise, it is only the second time that it has flowered.
