Moving on

Cherryfudge

Not much to report: I chopped up the strawberries and they are soaking in sugar ready to make jam. I was going to try an Instant Pot jam recipe but found out that since the float valve got broken, I can't use the IP for pressure cooking. That doesn't make a huge difference as I only pressure cooked twice in my life that I remember - but I'm looking at the sets of spare parts that you can get for about a tenner, including a spare valve and a couple of spare sealing rings.

Trying to sort this, I locked myself out of a couple of things on the computer which has resolved okay but wasted time. I decided to leave the cleaning till tomorrow and instead chopped strawberries and got half way though wrapping the parcel. I'd forgotten it's Friday so I had a rush to get to work on time. While I was there, someone threw out a big roll of plain paper so I rescued it - anyone who spends time with small children will appreciate that large quantities of paper are very useful.

Mr T gave me some coupons, most of which don't reallt interest me but I used one to get a 25p reduction off tinned fruit. When you consider most of the tins of fruit are now over £1 each, it wasn't difficult to spend the required £2.

And that, I think, is all for tonight.
