The after-photo of the sponge cake

Here is a photo of the sponge cake that Vince made. We cut the cake in half then put jam and cream in the middle and on the top. Then we grated a little bit of chocolate on top. I took a photo once he had finished putting it together. Our friend enjoyed it as did we. There is a few slices left over which we’ll take with us tomorrow. We’ve just found out that we have no water at the moment. It should come back on about 9 pm. I hope they know what they’re doing. It is a pain being without water.

@judyev I thought it would dress up well. No water is a real pain. I do hate the thought of unflushed facilities.

@JudyEv Relief. One can now flush with impunity and to one’s heart is content so long as it done without causing a drought.

It's already back on - the water that is so all is well again in our little world.

@MALUSE It’s unlikely that you’ll hear such a word in the pub or the market.

@JudyEv .......I am beginning to see where there are shortages of water around the US. I'm afraid it is only going to get worse. I really don't know what people will do without it. It is so important to everything.

@celticeagle It will be a catastrophe. I guess they will need to make more desalination plants.

It is lucky I guess that no myLotters live close enough to come and share or there wouldn't have been enough to go around.

@Juliaacv I am indeed. You can understand why I'm happy to clean up after his cooking efforts although he often at least rinses his pots and pans.

@JudyEv Yes, I made the sponge cake and I filled the bottom with a coffee cream and the top with whipped cream. It WAS good, nothing left.

The cake looks delicious, Vince can do some more Being without water isn't easy but we are facing the same risk if we don't get rain soon.

@nela13 That's really bad. Do people have rainwater tanks there? To catch the rain off the rooves?

If we're given warning about the water being cut off, then you can fill a few containers but sometimes there is no warning at all.

@oahuwriter That's a really good idea. I guess maybe it's not so hot here so I prefer my water straight from the tap.

@JudyEv That's so harsh, of no warning! I keep things of water, in my fridge... love cool water, si I have empty Simpli Orange Juice filled with water. I take cool water on my bus rides, si I got some water cooling in my travel containers in fridge too.

Looks more like a before photo. I don't mind having the water shut off as long as I've been warned about it ahead of time so I can fill the kettle and a few other containers.

It was just a broken pipe. Once that was fixed, we were back to normal.
