Himself brought home another bucket of cherries — marked down!

So, as well as about six litres of fruit ‘n’ booze hiding away in the darkest corner of the basement, we have a batch of plain-Jane cherry jam, a batch of fancy compote that becomes Cherries Jubilee with only a little help, and four litres in the freezer to become pie in the fullness of time.

I’m tired and my feet hurt, but the kitchen still looks like a bombed-out bordello so I have a ways to go yet.
