Lovely with a few apple pieces as the base for a crumble pudding. My wife - Shirley - usually makes bramble jelly from our bushes but we have some maddening neighbours who seem to think it is okay to lean over our fence and pick our brambles. Hpw vicious is Olga? Maybe I could rent her for a week or two to savage those thieving neighbours!Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-37320459615280166862015-08-14T14:58:07.301+01:002015-08-14T14:58:07.301+01:00I LOVE the red hot poker.
