Quince



Sadly, my tree produced not one little quince this year - may have been the frost that got the blossom. I will give it a good mulch soon to see it through teh winter, and keep fingers crossed for the spring.
So, I had to buy quinces; there is a lovely stall in the market that sells really good fruit and vegetables - named varieties of apples, unusual squashes, etc. I bought a few quince from him, and have bottled some with brambles to add to apple pies over the winter. I may get another couple to make some quince brandy with, if they are there next week.
