I think honey/maple syrup registers as sugar in terms of blood sugar. I was thinking of a fruit compote. I will keep you posted
Sorry about A's mini stroke...If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them

Wishing you well for the exam results MF. Hello poppet. I am so sorry the job is still the same with regard to the nastiness. There is always one toe rag in every workplace, they bully as they have no life and always pick on the nicest people they are jealous of. You just focus on your lovely gardens and remember they are LOSERS.
Ooooh you always do fab stuff in the garden and have inspired me, keep going Madame. In one year my garden is getting much better and i try to do a smidgen of what you do. Stay strong ok. Back in a few weeks.Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -
Thanks DIA and SW
SW my previous posts explain the college saga and where the course wasn't what they said it was, hence no actual exam or qualification.
I've started making headway with 2nd home again.
Had a great jam making session last weekend and I'll definitely be doing various jams with the fruits next year, plus puddings.
Yesterday was the local show and I entered fruit, veg (3rd), herbs and spices (commended), jam (2nd) and cake (commended). I've learnt a lot for next year and already planning for next year!
