Beautiful day in the bay - last year I had a preserving flurry made lots and lots of Kiwimaids plum sauce and lots of pasta sauce for the flatting grandchildren but that lot have jumped the ditch so the remaining grandchildren are younger and still under their respective mothers care .I have a bowl of apricots ,peaches and nectarines that I am sick of so when it cools down later going to boil it all up and make a fruit salad jam will only make a couple of pots but better than wasting it .Was given some greengages absolutely beautiful- ripe really early this year my DIL tells me and the best they have been for ages - so the weird weather has suited some varieties
Hunni wasn’t bottled trout spectacular - but I stopped doing it because it was evidently risky - my Mum then my siblings and I continued doing it but I listened to the experts and stopped .Now smoke them when we go to Kinloch
I am going to do some shading with the rainbow colours - one good thing about crochet you don’t have to just have blocks of colour and it’s so easy to unpick - not sure if I put up a photo of Dr Sueus but instead of just being a solid cat outline the shading was supposed to mimic a pencil drawing - so thought I will do a rainbow haze like down the cats side
