As in, I’ve been quiet for quite some time. My life certainly hasn’t. Most of the unquiet has been on the work front. A time of year that’s normally incredibly busy anyway has gone beyond busy to frantic, and my workload just keeps going up. Doesn’t leave a lot of energy at the end of…
It's beginning to look a lot like chutney
Just over an hour into the cooking process, and the vinegar is working its magic, turning a pot full of fruit into a rich dark brown syrup: See, I told you it would reduce! And the good news is, I found enough jars. Now I’ve just got to clean and sterilise them, and we’re good…

Catching up
Well, that was a busy few weeks! I am so incredibly behind with writing my diary (let alone reading anyone else’s) I can’t beleive it – where on earth do I start? I think I’ll start with the easy stuff this week and work backwards to the weekends in Mt Cook and Wellington, which involved…
