If it was up to Mum, she wouldn’t eat much at all. This is what happened in August, she wasn’t eating enough, fell over and wasn’t strong enough to get up.

While we both know what’s coming with the PSP, Mum would like to stay at home for as long as she can. I’m more than happy to support that, but I need to be confident that if she falls (and she will fall) she’ll be able to get up.

So I make sure she has food and Mum eats the food. I try and make things that Mum likes to eat and Mum loves a pie.

So I bought some mini pie pans and pies it is!

I can make good shortcrust pastry but I buy puff pastry, so all I really need to do is make the filling. This one is chicken and bacon, I used the fat from the cooked bacon to make the white sauce. I’m going to try mushrooms next!
