I'm home from work now and I have a whole week off to enjoy...hooray! I have so many things I want to do but I'm sure I wont be able to cram them all in. One thing I thought I would do is make something with the red currants I picked last week. 
I bought this red currant bush for the garden this year. I would ideally like lots of soft fruit in the garden but we just don’t have the space plus that fact that I would rather have flowers than vegetables! I didn’t expect the currant to do as well as it has with it being its first year. Anyway, it has given quite a good crop considering it still such a small plant. If anyone knows any good recipes using red currants, they would be much appreciated.That's all for now. Hope you all have a lovely weekend.
Those currants look positively yummy! I bet the birds would love them too. Susie, I've given you an award! I won my very first, and am passing it on to the blogs that make me happy, and yours definitely does! Please don't feel obligated to do anything, if you don't want to participate!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Hi Susie,
ReplyDeleteOh how happy for you. Enjoy your week off!! Do red currants taste like black? Currants aren't as big here in the US. I lived in England when I was very little. I loved Rybina (i think that's what it is called) I see you won an award!! Way to go!! That's a nice start to your vacation.

YOUR CURRANTS HAVE SUCH A DELICIOUS RED COLOUR...
ReplyDeleteI BET THEY WILL TASTE YUMMY, IF YOU DECIDE TO MAKE SOME JAM OR WHATEVER!
IF YOU GOOGLE, YOU WILL FIND LOTS OF RECIPES FOR YOUR CURRANTS!
HAVE A LOVELY WEEKEND!
ENJOY LIFE`S SIMPLE TREASURES!

I don't think I've ever seen currants before. I've heard of them but I didn't know that was what they looked like. Now I'm ashamed that I didn't know and I'm a country girl.
ReplyDeleteThe birds ate all of mine!! Thankfully they don't seem to care for any other type....lol xxx
ReplyDeleteHi Susie, I'm sorry, I don't have any recipe for your red currants, but they looks really great!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week off and have fun in your beautiful garden!
What gorgeous red-currants - I've seen them used with other fruits and berries in a summer pudding or as a red currant jelly - they are a wonderful colour. Hope you enjoy your week off work:)
ReplyDeleteI'd rather have flowers to vegetables in the garden too. x
