  • What AM I going to do? Justin has brought home THREE carrier bags FULL of grapes, kindly donated by a lady at work. There's only the two of us to feed (sadly cats don't eat grapes). I've made enough jam to last about four years lately, and not sure grapes are any good as jam anyway. Please help!

    I wished you live near me, we go through a bag of grapes a day! They never last long enough to do anything with so I am of no help in that regard I'm afraid.
  • Oooh you lucky thing - freeze as many as you can and then eat them like boiled sweets, they are really lovely that way

  • eeeeeewwwwwww Sarah - apart from the fact that we're strict vegans, I just can't THINK what that might be like! Maybe the cats WOULD eat the grapes then!!

    There was a post on my local freecycle yesterday from someone who had a glut this season - they were taken pretty quickly.

    I was grateful to a freecycler for my jam jars AND she gave me some windfall apples too. I gave her some plums for her kindness :) I LOVE freecycle!
