Busy day preparing for tomorrow’s Charters Towers QCWA Markets.

NEW THIS WEEK
Sauerkraut
Dill Pickles (fermented)
Ladyfinger Bananas

My sauerkraut was ready to bottle and the Dill Pickles I made on the 23/10 are ready. I had a number of people asking me to sell my sauerkraut and Dill Pickles so for the first time ever I am selling some. I normally only make it for our personal use, but I have been known to gift a bottle to a special friend or two. The banana bunch we harvested on Tuesday has yellowed and I will have some hands for sale plus much more

I just sat down for lunch at 1:15pm. The last of the pumpkin scones are in the oven. All my baking just needs to cool. Tomorrow’s QCWA Makets I will be bringing some fresh baked pumpkin scones, Moroccan orange cake and Honey coconut cake with a caramel icing. Plus cucumbers, zucchini, pumpkins both J*p and Butternut, limes, lemons, cordial, jams and relishes.

This Sunday October 18th, I will be at the Charters Towers QCWA Markets.
The cucumbers and zucchini are lovely at this time of the year. I have an order for pumpkin scones so I will make a few extra for the markets. Tomorrow I will post what I will be bringing so just follow for updates. If you are looking for something specific just message me.
