Curry and Apple Turnovers

All it takes for the matriarch to be inspired is food. Today, she had for the first time in her long life lamb curry. Four of us sat there and watched her eat it; it was mild, it was very good and the whole situation seemed slightly unbelievable. I had made her a vegetable puree sort of thing to go on mashed potatoes and my middle child had made the curry. The matriarch asked why we were eating something different; I told her I didn't think she would eat lamb or curry or the two combined. Apparently, she will. And, my mother-in-law will also eat apple turnovers made fresh with homemade puff pastry; in fact, she will eat two of them.
