DIY Burnt Apricot Jam Update

Posted on January 6, 2014 by Christine • 6 Comments

I spent the whole time we were travelling to and from Canberra worrying about a few things. One of those things was what I had done to my precious, precious apricot jam. Was it salvagable? Had I made more apricot paste? (I still have a jar of apricot paste from when I overprocessed it last … Continue reading →

{Storing the Harvest} DIY Apriot Jam

Posted on January 2, 2014 by Christine • 10 Comments

Technically this post should probably be called DIY Burnt Apricot Jam, because I’m pretty sure that’s what I did. But since I want to focus on the positives, we’ll pretend like it didn’t happen. About two days ago Nick announced that we should head to Canberra this week. We were going to head up at some … Continue reading →

{Storing the Harvest} DIY Dried Apricots

Posted on December 30, 2013 by Christine • Leave a comment

Since I discovered that I had a bunch of apricots that desperately needed to be used I decided to use the more bruised ones to make diced dried apricots.

{DIY} Christmas Gift – Jam Shortbread Biscuits Recipe

Posted on December 13, 2013 by Christine • 1 Comment

A few weeks ago I told one of my friends (she of the rhubarb shrub) that we should arrange to have a baking day to get all of our Christmas baking done and out of the way. Fun though baking is, it can get quite tedious when on one’s own. To my surprise she both agreed … Continue reading →

{DIY} Christmas Gifts – Rhubarb Jam Recipe

Posted on December 12, 2013 by Christine • 5 Comments

One of my friends has a rhubarb plant that she wants to rip out. Her husband planted it quite some time ago, but they almost never use it. It’s taking up about half of one of their raised beds, and she’s worried that her two year old son will, one day, take to chomping on … Continue reading →

{Book Review} Whole Larder Love

Posted on December 4, 2013 by Christine • Leave a comment

A few weeks ago I was delighted to discover the blog Whole Larder Love.
