Wednesday:    Weather cloudy but not raining and quite cool with nice sea breeze.  Been busy with Corporate work but managed some cooking.  Paper still full of sadness and trying very hard to find a good feel story will have to keep looking.

Here is another of Great Grandmothers recipies, this time for Fruit chutney:  Take 4 lbs of apples, 3lbs of tomatoes 1lb of pears, 4lb of brown sugar;tablespoon of treacle 1 1/2 tablespoons ofcloves, the same quantity of ground ginger, all spice, whole pepper, one tablespoon of mace 1/4 teaspoon of of cayenne pepper, 3/4 lb of raisins and 2 quarts of vinegar. Peel and core apples, peel and slice the tomatoes and also pears and stone and cut the raisins.Put all together and boil until correct consistency.


The kitchen and cook must have been busy making all these chutneys etc as there are around 15 different recipes for all sorts of fruit.

A friend sent me this blog of songs of the 60's and I have been enjoying them.  Here is the blog.

Bridge tomorrow, hope we do better than yesterday!  Had an enjoyable day but play was shocking, don't seem to be able to win at the present time.  Tomorrow is another day however.

All for now  Anne
