Dear Miss Macpherson
I was sorry to learn that you don't make desserts, but then at one time you
didn't make soups did you, so I'm quite sure you will change your mind once
you've tasted Cock-of-Puddings, a sample of which I enclose. This is the
definitive version, and consists of 4 parts of Ambrosia Creamed Rice to
1 part of Baxters Cock-a-Leekie Soup, half a teaspoon of honey, quarter
of a teaspoon of minced root ginger, and a little nutmeg. Utter bliss!
I haven't got canning facilities of course, but the old salmon tin I have put it in
has been thoroughly sterilised in Milton, before re-sealing the tin lid with superglue, so you
have nothing to fear on the health front.
My family and I plan to visit your Visitors Centre on the 23rd of May,
and your factory the following day, all being well. By then you and
Ena Baxter will have had the chance to sample Cock-of-Puddings and
evaluate it. Indeed I will be very surprised if you're not producing
it in vast quantities in one of your huge kettles by then. Whereabouts
is you office, I'll drop in on you?
Incidentally, the expression 'to die for', which I told you was used by
Laura Barker to describe Cock-of-Pudding, proved to be a little unfortunate,
as two days later she dropped dead. But I'm quite sure it had nothing to do with
the pudding.
My regards to you.
Yours faithfully  |
