British wives call Lompoc Valley home
01.01.70
Audrey Cawkwell from Hull, Yorkshire, England, placed the
cupcakes on the table to share with the gathering of women in the
back of Alfie’s Authentic English Fish and Chips on North H Street
in Lompoc.
“Here are the butterfly cakes,” she said, in a waning British
accent.
Marie Higgins, from Manchester, Lancashire, called the cupcakes
“wing buns.”
Valerie Ross, from Barton Mills, Suffolk, called them “angel
buns.”
To Fran Cozier, from Clyderbank, Scotland, they were “fairy
cakes.”
Eunice Souder, also from York, Yorkshire, brought the mushy
peas, an English staple of mashed beans soaked and simmered with
salt and sugar, which goes well with fish. June Foster, of West
Bromwich in England’s Midlands, brought a tray of bread and
butter.
The coordinator for these monthly get-togethers is Veronica
Waugh, from Bury Saint Edmunds, Suffolk, who brought the tea, milk,
tea kettles and the water for the tea.
The amiable owners of Alfie’s, Mike and Nellie Sewall, are very
nice to the English ladies. And in turn, the women are full of
praise for “Mikey,” as they often call him.
