Doing a little digging on Lemon Curd so that I can make tarts and I discover that lemon curd was originally a topping that was spread on toast or scones. Never knew that. Interesting.
Two days later I pick up the latest Alan Bradley novel I Am Half Sick of Shadows. The books are set in post WWII England. No sooner do I start reading than Flavia, the main character, spreads some lemon curd on toast. I wonder if I had read this before in books and just never noticed or is this the first time I've read a book with a reference to lemon curd.
The series is excellent, by the way.

Have you read "The Guernsey Literary and potato Peel Pie Society" yet? If not, I highly recommend it. Its a great little read.
I have not, but it has now been ordered from my local library. Thanks for the suggestion.
