I love the reflection on airline food, then and now. I’m with you: even just a little cookie after dinner makes the meal feel more complete :)

Hear hear, Jolene! Just a small sweet end to the meal is all that is needed.

Good read - we must be similar vintage. Growing up with porridge and always

Dessert! And similar desserts by the sound of it. We had our own cows so it was

Always custard or rice cream with stewed fruit, crumble or pie. Porridge- we are team water, although I occasionally put a little milk at the end. I don’t like the flavour of the milk cooked in it for too long. I also add extra Milk when serving. I am planning on posting about porridge soon! Airline food certainly isn’t what it used to be. Our longest flight these days is from qld to wa and the food is pathetic. Last time I flew I took my own.

Your place sounds just like ours when it comes to dessert! The fare on domestic flights is very ordinary, even when you have to pay extra for it. Taking your own is very sensible!
