Launton WI reports

At our November meeting Maretta Dowman was our guest speaker as well as being one of our members, where she demonstrated cake icing. Maretta elaborately decorated a Christmas cake with Royal icing and lots of different coloured decorative pieces. A well-iced decorative cake is a form of art well illustrated by Maretta. (see photo on the header.)

We all really enjoyed the demonstration. Maretta then donated the decorated cake for a raffle: Theresa Meacock was the lucky winner. If you would like to come to the Launton WI, we meet on the second Thursday of the month at 7.30pm in the Parish Hall. You will be very welcome. Come along and join us!

Our next meeting is a Christmas dinner held with WIs from Langford Village, Bicester Foxy Ladies, and Wendlebury, in Weston on the Green Village Hall. It is on Thursday 12 December, and tickets are needed. Our first meeting in the New Year will be on 9 January; the speaker will be Pam Newall talking on A Sunny Walk in the Cherwell Valley.
