I'm not usually one to blow my own trumpet, but I'm very chuffed! Today was Kidlington Gardening Society's Annual Show, and we thought we would enter some of our home grown and home made produce, to see how it would do (i.e. to see if other people think it's as cool as we do!) Sadly Kevin's runner beans weren't the longest ones there, and his Crown Prince squash and Sungold tomatoes didn't win a prize either (although I think they were the best in show!) I entered some jillicious jam (a jar of raspberry and a jar of mirabelle plum jam) into the "jam" category and a jar of bramble & crab apple jelly and a jar of last year's mango & apple chutney into the "preserves" category. Imagine my delight when we returned to the village hall after to the judging to find a "1st place" sticker on my entry card for the mango & apple chutney! So I think it's fair to say that jillicious produce is prize-winning!
There were plenty of other entries into the show.......
