Those are homemade sweets prepared by an expert in food - Monk. No cheap biscuits from Coles for him.

I used to think he was a bit smarter than you but have had to change my mind. So, Booby, you are no longer the Village Idiot. I present Village Idiot—Jason.

I have visited a lot of op shops—they were a mania almost with Mum. I always looked in the bric a brac display, found 4 stoneware tea cups I thought would be great for use outside, when grey nomading etc or in the garden shed. Nothing special at all ahout them. That is the crockery/cutlery/glassware I bought from an op shop. Lots of books I did buy.

I paid $35 for one Wedgewood cup and saucer and $50 or 55 for the next two. Then the eBay price went ballistic.

No decoration inside the cup, no lip to the cup and the decoration on the outside looks printed not handpainted. Finally, the design is pretty damn commonplace.

If you would like fantastic chocolate then mail order here:

https://anvers-chocolate.com.au/shop/

When I had land in Tasmania and went there to work the land I would visit Anvers on the way back to the ferry to the mainland, it is close to Devonport. Their hot chocolate is the stuff to dream of, hot, rich, chocolaty. Any visitor to Tassie should stop there and spend up big on their superb chocolates.

I also stopped at the Christmas Hills Raspberry Farm cafe—incredibly good raspberry jam and delicious raspberry sauce. A bit of that sauce over icecream, heavenly!

https://raspberryfarmcafe.com/shop/

I buy two large jars of their raspberry jam, 4 bottles of sauce and for baking etc a bottle or two of their raspberry syrup—don’t buy this unless you bake etc. I am thinking half a bottle of this would go great in a fruitcake!

Finally, if you like cheese, Ashgrove is a few Km up the road to Devonport from the raspberry farm café.

https://www.ashgrovecheese.com.au/blogs/news

I would also stop at a winery or two on the way back, Velo Wines and Holm Oak. Superb very Tasmanian wine. Great pinot noirs!
