beware parsnips
The message t
from "Mary Fisher" contains these words: Well, as I said, some of the jam was from the 1950s. The crystals had around forty years to grow... And you said that a couple of days after dissolving the crystals in the m/wave they began to gorm again. I find that hard to believe - that crystals large enough to be detected would form after a couple of days. Did I say how big they had grown to in a couple of days? whisper I have a numbered bottle of single-cask-bottling of Linkwood. I'm saving it for a special occasion and/or (a) deserving conoisseur(s) innit. looks round your place or mine? Well, bringing it back from Naaaardge on the bus was terrifying enough. So yours. Well, I don't want to rish a heart-attack. I might have to have regular doses of medicine on the way, to reassure myself. p.s. so good to see that you use butter instead of something produced by men in white coats. Why not enhance it with your own produce? I do, but ATM I haven't got a decent preserving pan. Well, I haven't got a preserving pan. I molish my own pickles and things though. I have a large brass preserving pan going a-begging. I prefer to use a very large ss pan for all preserving. it's not as pretty but it was very cheap and cleans easily - and of course there's no observable reaction between metal and ingredients. Hmmm. Linkwood meets preserving pan? When are you in? Playing darts tonight. Tomorrow morning, weather permitting, there's a local lad coming to help get the disordered parts of the garden in some semblence of order. I'll be in tomorrow afternoon, though. Do you like working on motorcycles? /Microwave jam/ Freezer jam is even more efficient... And excellent for strawberries. Since I can't grow strawberries and won't buy them any more that's just a memory. Want some runners? I'm sending - er - someone - note="must make" must look in my emu box! /note some wild strawb runners when I've got round to rooting some. Also have some rather tasty tame strawbs. You can get a plastic oil drum and cut holes in the side, then fill it with soil and plant strawberries in the holes. -- Rusty Direct reply to: horrid dot squeak snailything zetnet point co period uk Separator in search of a sig |
