Harvest time is rolling around again. First up are the apricots and the plums. Sad to say, but the apricots, though plentiful, are so badly scarred from a hail storm that they are almost impossible to eat...ugly! We have been picking the ripe ones and then cutting them up for inclusion in our hot breakfast cereal. I might be able to salvage 50 or more from the two trees. A poor harvest.
The plums are almost the same, with lots of scars. But I eat them anyway, fresh and sweet. And I made some plum sauce this morning, since it doesn't require a good looking plum to be successful. That sauce will go on our pork dinners. Next I will try and make some plum butter!
