Very suburban-earth-mother this evening.
After
watering the broad beans, pumpkins, courgettes, lettuce, beetroot, cabbage and
sunflowers (with Thunderthighs’ help) I made about 8lb of blackberry, rhubarb
and blackcurrant jam whilst liquidising another 2.5lb of blackberries and
putting them through a sieve onto icing sugar preparatory to making an attempt at sorbet tomorrow.
Mr
Melodeon Impressive!
Ms
Telyn Very
humbled by your efforts...
Darklady
Blackberries!
They're early!!
Ms
KA Domesticated
godess!!!
Henlady
My class
always loved your jam at brunch- and staff often popped in when they smelled
the toast!
Bess
Cavalier I've
got a tub of half made pear and blackberry jam from last year in the freezer!
Really must find time to finish it off before
the preserving season really gets under way.
Must get some nectarine vodka on the go as
well!

The
blackberries are last year's from the freezer - we didn't have the time
(or
energy) to do anything with them last year. Mind you there are nice big green fruit on our
early red-blackberry so they're not so far off!
Darklady
I finally
realised that! I've still got sloes & hips from last year
Miss
Fiddle Ben,
we're dancing at the Cumberland on Thursday and I have some jars - do you want
them?
Bentobag
No thanks -
I'm working my way through the collection in the garage ....
Later
The sorbet
works!
So does the jam.
Darklady
Yippee!
