Mrs M has water again! 🥳

At long, long last, Mrs M was delighted to tell me that her water filtration system was fixed - thank goodness!! As a result her trolley felt rather empty and much lighter than usual today even after I collected everything for her. There were no surprises this week, as many of the regular favourites featured on the list. Tesco had all bar one item - Sainsbury's came through with wholemeal pittas, and with that I headed back to her flat.

Our chat today featured her noisy neighbour, and discussion of her continued recovery from the knee operation. As I was leaving, she headed out into the corridor with her walking stick to get some walking practice in. Mrs M insisted I take some Chinese red bean buns with me back to work - she used to order them as a treat for herself and her late husband, and still gets them in from time to time as a treat just for herself now... although she still orders the same amount, so she assured me that she would have plenty even after giving me 5 of them! A quick google tells me that they are called Dou Sha Bao (豆沙包) and contain a paste made of red adzuki beans. Mrs M has given them to me once before as a thank you prior to her knee operation, so I know that I am in for a delicious treat again. Thank you Mrs M!
