Garage Sale Plans

We are going to have a garage sale for Lurcher SOS, to help raise funds to pay for treatment for two lurchers called Polly and Abbie, who need to be made well before they can go to new homes.

 Besides the usual clearout, we are going to sell homemade preserves and cakes, plus homemade dog treats from the fab A La Bark Baking cookbook by Kris Owen. You can get it from Lurcher SOS or http://www.alabarkbaking.co.uk/ and some of your money will help dogs in rescue. The recipes are really easy and your dogs will go mad for them.

Anyway, I have just made some spiced damson chutney, using a recipe from Nip it in the Bud.  It smelt gorgeous whilst cooking, but I haven't tasted it yet, as I'm not a chutney lover, but here it is, bubbling away...

Thanks for the recipe, Nic! There are some seriously yummy recipes on Nip it in the Bud, and I am completely addicted to the Damson and Orange Jam. It's definitely not going to last long!
