A Little Unfinished Business


Finally got round to dealing with some of last year's blackcurrants, which have been taking up space in the freezer.  Hope you enjoy out little video.

Home Produce.

This weekend was very wet and put me down in the dumps, not wanting to do anything.

So I didn't.
Through I did start some strawberry wine, with Genie's help.  I had just enough strawbs for a gallon, and just enough enthusiasm to take photos for a video (watch this space).
The dish on the left contains wild strawberries - a freebie from the garden!

Genie and I went for a walk to check out our local allotments.  They put us to shame. I console myself that our garden is convalescing, and not up to full production yet, though I know this is a little conceit.

The shed still looks at me dolefully.  It's no good having big shed fantasies if I don't do something about it - I must have a proper go at estimating cost and finalising plans.
This evening (Tuesday), tackled last year's frozen blackcurrants, and made about 8 lbs.  Again, video to follow.
A dramatic Pot-shot.
