                                                          We are now some 11 weeks into lockdown and
                                                          the suspension of our Masonic activities. The
                                                          beautiful sunny weather also seems to be
                                                          suspended, so I have taken the opportunity to
                                                          stay indoors and write up another report on
                                                          what has been happening across our Province
                                                          since my previous letter in April.

           Hello Brethren all and welcome to recipe of the month (no not that one, this one). This is a new
           feature we are going to run in every issue of the London Mallet.
           So, we’ll start off with something simple.
           This recipe came to me from my Grandmother on a barely readable scrap of paper. When
           my Grandfather passed away around 1970 my Grandmother was befriended by a Swiss

                                                                                                              7/9

           neighbour whom we knew very well. The recipe came from him hence, perhaps, the name.
           Give it a go. It really is very good, especially if you’re in training to become the next
           strongest man in the world, as it contains around 3 million calories!
           Feedback is more than welcome, good, bad, or indifferent. Photos as well, please, so if you
           muck it up we can all have a good laugh at your expense!!
           Keep safe and keep cooking.
