Friend dropped off a box of lemons, limes and quinces. I’ve cooked the quinces with apples, in black current and apple juice. Undecided what to make.
Yesterday made citrus and whiskey marmalade.
Also given lots of small cucumbers. Will pickle some.

Katie, there is a recipe that gives a similar result as the one using the packet soup. It has Apricot jam as its base. I’ll look it up for you.
Grilled salmon and steamed veggies and TMX mashed potato.

Also made ratatouille and crumbed chicken,crumbed eggplant and mushrooms.
Chicken veggie soup in TMX.

Thanks girls, I wasn’t logged in. Up and running now.
I’ve just had a delivery of limes, lemons and quinces.
I’m still recovering from a scam on Friday. The police said tell everyone. The story was that a thief had my bank and home details. They did have my home address and email numbers. I hung up but felt unsafe. Spent the night at friends place and DS came and set up some alarms in the house.

Marina,I  don’t recognise any.
The Guardian listed 100 books listed by ‘ experts’. Then 100 books recommended by readers. Although I’ve read quite a few from both lists, there were so many that I should read.

Marina, take it easy. When I felt like that, I had a pinched nerve in my neck.

For book club, When sleeping woman wake and always home and always homesick. We had a talk by the Librarian who selects the books for all the Bookclubs in Ballarat. Very interesting. One of the Criteria is how many pages. Nothing over 450.

Today I made the second visit to the Ballarat Community Garden Swap. There are quite a few young people who organise this event . I took lots of jam and sauces as well as SD crumpets. I  collected from the table lots of Feijoas, red and green chilli’s and wild mushrooms. There were about 8 different cakes on the table for morning tea as well as baklava. I also got some quail eggs and Chook eggs. As the morning progressed more people arrived and placed more goodies on the table.
