of cheesecloth and mange tout etc


yes, after two and a half months my English students took me for
a giant shop (as an exchange for one lesson) for heavy items such as sugar ( black cherry jam season is rapidly
approaching) flour, fruitjuices, toilet rolls (that's the cumbersome territory)
etc, etc, and got to the agro-animal shop where I managed to get a cheese-forming thingy - plastic cup in holes in it (but that at least wasn't more expensive than a plastic cup with holes in it should be); but the cheesecloth... better to be good for 3800HUF!
I made a picture of Lois and Alan pea-shelling - doing a large bucketful a day
for this week, but it was out of focus due to the frurtration wibes in the room...
But you can see the result of cherry (not black) preserving work - first time ever,
still to be tasted. To my surprise, frozen cherries are rather nice.
Internet was down for 18hours or so, new internet efforts via Pannon dismal failure so far - their modem did not work, have to be taken back to their shop in Pecs - sometimes next week. humph.
