Day 288 - October 15th

My friend Heather has a huge garden - well its more of an estate really, and every autumn she asks us whether we would like some of the fruit from the many fruit trees she has. So this afternoon my Mum and Dad and I went and picked some fruit. We each came away with several carrier bags full of cooking apples, eating apples, pears and hazelnuts. It'll now be my job to prepare and freeze the cooking apples so that between now and next autumn we have a ready supply of fruit for crumbles. Mmmmmmmmm
