Hi Carol. To save your inbarrisment if you have mashed potatoe with your meal get your carer to mix the peas in the potatoe, it works for me every time! I also use a fork, and spoon with all my meals. Kind Regards, Lisa and Dotty. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carol O'Connor" <missbossyboots33@xxxxxxxxx>
