  1. Spring has sprung in Sheffield, UK. Lots of apple, pear and quince blossom. I planted the quince tree in February/March 2021 and had three fruit from it last year. Last autumn was a mast year for walnuts. I have at least four seedlings from the (Juglans nigra) black walnuts that I gathered. #sheffield #juglansnigra #cydona #quince #walnut

  2. Some #quince #jelly cooling off in the glass tray below the freezer, because apparently I make jelly now.

  3. Quince has a better option for $300 🤗

    This Zegna Jacket Is a Modern Lesson in Old-School Style

    “THE SARTORIALLY OBSESSED CAN GET HOT UNDER THE COLLAR when they see a jacket without a discernible lapel. In trad minds, shades of try-hard or even a hint of Bond villain hang around tailored pieces that diverge significantly from blessedly normal notches or peaks”

  4. We have 2637g of the plain #quince extract. This year it has started to go deep red already, and has so much pectin that it's gelling up around the edges before I've even added sugar and boiled it down. So different to last year's small crop off the same tree!

    The chilli & spice quince extract is still extracting.

    I am running short of jars right now, have been rounding up all sorts, mainly a mix of what I have left of hexagonal jars, and a bunch of saved Promite jars (thanks to Kat's foresight!) Got them all in the dishwasher on a 70°C cycle.

    Will add sugar and start cooking down the jellies in an hour or so.

    For now... a second coffee and a sit-down. Feeling kinda bushed. Not sure what, if any, #allotment activity will occur today. (TBF on myself the #preserving ought to count as an allotment activity.)

  5. I have finally put the membrillo/quince paste into the oven. 😂 This is the longest recipe ever. I have been stirring it every five to ten minutes for three hours. After about two hours of other steps. #membrillo #quince #quincepaste #cooking
