Can you say "fruity"?

What a day, what a day...

The weather was absolutely gorgeous.

Which of course prompted me to grab the camera and take some pictures.


Cherries. I know, I know...I showed them before but I'm still amazed that they actually grew and tasted allright. Well, they tasted like sour, but not like crap, so essentially, they tasted okay. The last of the batch is coming off tomorrow...

My girlfriend and I were out taking a walk in the back bush...her's, not mine...and we stumbled across a hidden treasure. I noticed the red patch, she didn't know it was there and we picked every single one of them off, split them in half and made some lovely apple crumble!

Front yard apples are few and far between this year but what is there is very, very tasty! They're just coming ready now and I will say, there's nothing like a "new crop" of apples to regenerate your appreciation!

Progress is amazing! These are the grapes that for the last two years have been trampled by too many puppies. This year, as you've seen if you've been reading, we got grapes! They blossomed, they grew, they grew bigger and now they're turning colour. While I thought we had red and green, turns out we have two red! (go figure eh??!?!!). Might be able to pull enough off to make some grape jelly, but watch out next year!! Me thinks I'll be making wine!!

Ciao!!
