I've loads of frozen peas, french beans and runners, and ratatouille, plus rhubarb, green tomatoes, windfall apples, elderberries and raspberries - to make more jams and chutneys. Also frozen quite a bit Delia's braised red cabbage and apple in portions, cos nobody fancied pickled red cabbage this year

I've already made HFW's glutney chutney, green tomato and apple chutney, courgette and ginger chutney and the first lot of seedless raspberry jam, 12 small jars of tomato based pasta sauce and 8 small jars of passata. Phew!

I also made saurkraut and beans fermented/preserved the same way. Going to make plum curd at the weekend.

I'm seriously wondering how I'm going to fit everything in the freezer and am going to pounce on the next freezer that comes up on Freecycle. I've made masses of jam and chutney so far, now low on jars. All my jars, from proper Kilners to old jam jars, and all my demijohns, are scavenged, but I'm wondering if I'm going to have to, y'know, actually *buy* some

Today was herb drying day: sage, rosemary and thyme.



If the slugs hadn't eaten all the parsley, we could've done the Scarborough Fair song.
So thank goodness for slugs!
