This year we having been growing lots of our own produce and have been taking better care of it than we normally do. This led to a glut of cherries and plums, a lot of which I froze.
.. I made some cherry vodka with the cherries and bottled it (after a lot of sampling) this morning. My intentions are to keep it until Christmas. I used the last of the plums to make a Chinese style plum sauce and that is in the freezer.
This afternoon I spent in the pottery putting some mice on mugs and sugar basins. We have put some of the "mouse range" in the oatmeal - blue glaze into a gallery called Art and Soul in Beverley , and that has depleted our stock. It'll be a couple of weeks before they come through.
Gerry has packed the large kiln to biscuit fire some more pots so that we can have a glaze firing in the large gas kiln. I think we have only fired that three times since March!
