Rennet can be bought in health food shops or even my local village shop sells it. Have also seen it in the chemist shop as well.
Once junket is made I add nutmeg to it then a dollop of cream.
If you can not find any send me you address via pm and I will post you some 🙂

The fridge keeps Lipstick quite firm.
Er, just realised what I have written

Steffi, are you reading this through laughter? But honestly it is easier to apply when firm, it's with the Lard and NovoRapid !
