The case: Where did the pudding bowl go?
Una Mallow at the cottage garden, carrying the red ribbon, at 11:30.
It was borrowed to hold some fallen apples. The bowl returns, with an apple for the cook.
The striped display bowl has vanished. The recipe card is leaning against thin air.
A reliable witness saw the person carrying the red ribbon take it away.
