| Gooseberry & kiwi jam... |
Last year our gooseberry bush had a total of 2 (yes, two) gooseberries on it and we decided to cut the bush right down to ground level. It was either grow back better or we'll chuck you out completely...Well, fast forward to this year and I am pleased to say that I harvested 150g worth (a small bowl full). To get the most out of the crop, we decided to make jam - gooseberry & kiwi jam, in fact! Not a huge amount came out but enough to fill a couple of small jars, so I am very pleased! Let's hope next year's crop will be even bigger!
As can be seen from the photo, the sun is out today! How lovely! We still don't exactly have summer temperatures but at least it is dry today. Quite worrying just how many floods and flood alerts are occurring throughout the UK - we are quite lucky that we have not been affected by those and just had some miserable wet days.
