Jan's been busy

 


I spent Tuesday afternoon being very domesticated. Bob & I just love pickles & chutneys. Every time we go to markets & craft shops first thing I look for is some homemade pickles etc. Decided to make some myself & must say they turned out pretty good, bit spicy but will go very nicely with cold cornbeef or pickled pork
