I harvested rhubarb today for the first time since we moved here. Last year my lovingly transported plant went in to a spot that didn't prove at all fertile, but I moved it in anticipation of builders, and put it somewhere it likes much more. So the rhubarb pieces are softened on the stove with a little sugar and a tin of broken mandarins in syrup, a combination which seems to work very well. We shall eat it with condensed milk tomorrow. Om nom.

And my apple trees are heavy with apples! It is Most Exciting.
