Last weekend was windy, sleety cold. Jean GB had given me some cumquats so it was an ideal opportunity to bottle them. I'm very happy with the results. They are delicious.
When I was a child, my mother had three set sayings that always amused me and my sister who became 'Helen Highwater' after one of them. Another was 'come what may' which became Cumquat May because May is Mum's middle name. I'll tell you the third one when I remember it.
Your blog has made me miss the cumquat tree we had in Bolwarra. I used to make pots of jam and loved it. Your bottled fruits look fabulous. And while your blog title made me laugh, I still can't get Paul Simon out of my head from your last blog!!! I think the Welsh Witch moniker is particularly apt. FF
