Throw courgettes away, drink red wine.

I don't drink red wine, so what do you suggest? *:-)


* *Give it to me?


Problem is that they are one of the easiest veg to grow - and *the glut
at
the end is the main part of the *problem !


We are overwhelmed with blackcurrants this year. For some reason the
birds
don't
eat them.


Make wine/vinegar?


Judith supplies the wine.


We hope

Blackcurrant vinegar?


Why not? *When I was a child, ice cream from the ice cream seller had
raspberry vinegar liberally sprinkled on


Lucky you getting an ice cream, with 5 of us, that didn't happen, too
expensive. Instead my Mother would buy a block of ice cream and give
us all a little slice between 2 wafers, I can still taste the soggy
wafer at the very last mouthful.
