Now I just have to locate the Damsons. I have asked at the Veg shop and she has said that she will keep an eye out for some, but I think this year will be a miss year again. Never mind the jar is in waiting shall we say. I have not had any blackberries or elderberries either not many this way and a lot of it I am putting down to the dry weather. By the way I have just purchased two Christmas magazines. One of them called simply Christmas comes complete with some mini cookie cutters and a pull out recipe booklet and there is a recipe in it for pear and vanilla infused vodka. Thought I would share. hope all goes well at the Village show. I use the Guardian Recipes quite a lot especially if HFW is involved. That's where I got my recipe for forced spring bottled rhubarb in syrup from. Glad you are getting the bits ad bobs together - each year you do something next year you will increase on it but very happy you are enjoying the process as well. Take care. pattypanxxPattypanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10533048669555871726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5014100274699311649.post-63309425411182617362016-09-16T06:08:11.897-07:002016-09-16T06:08:11.897-07:00lovely gifts, good luck with the show lovely gifts, good luck with the show Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05213759909336433460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5014100274699311649.post-9804964735980924572016-09-16T05:53:23.585-07:002016-09-16T05:53:23.585-07:00Oh good luck at the show.
