Yesterday I made a batch of apple and Pear chutney, this was my mums recipe. I used the home grown pears but the apples are not ready , so shop ones for now . Three large jars ! Also two whole TMX jugs of stewed pears . Freezer stash ! Now the problem is the kitchen is still full of pears . The lorakets are slowly visiting so I don’t mind too much , still scare them away though .

Today I used both TMXs to make apple and Pear chutney- it was very cathartic, putting everything in slowly realising that my converted recipe I had to half and Chookie I had notes on it to use your Pear lemon and cardamom chutney as a guide . I miss Mum everyday but still right now part of me is missing ( it’s her words and guidance) . On to the next batch of stewed pears for the freezer .

Watched ABC's Back Roads programme last night, it was based in Shark Bay and thought of you Cookie because I know that has been one of your camping spots.  It is a stunningly beautiful area.
