I want to try your baked quince (from Gardens Illustrated) too. Sadly, we don't have a room for a quince tree in our far-too-small edible forest but I took the precaution of planting one in my parents garden and persuading the neighbours that it was the perfect tree for the communal planter in our street. But I expect there will be a lot of competition when this tree starts fruiting. Also I completely understand your feelings about the impossibility of combining work with being a patient, good-tempered mum at all times. Right now I'm trying to finish an article with both kids sick at home, lots of interruption. Great idea, turning these flavours into an ice cream.

We have an ice cream machine, have had it for years and it is a great addition to the kitchen. Sorbets are wonderful. Best one we ever made was blackcurrant. Hope to read of more interesting flavours, though chocolate is always good....! Great combination of flavours.

Lovely day. The only regret I have about not having a fridge/freezer is that it means we can't make ice-cream. So pleased for both of you - for all of you! - that the pressure is lifting and health returning. Lovely post. Lovely day.

I love anise and also – brilliant for desserts, though possibly not with quince – cardamom. How did you manage to achieve that gorgeous, clean colour? A perfect creamy yellow, like the rose 'Golden Showers.' You're so right about freezing. The wild blackberry crop failed almost completely round us, this year, because of long-lasting drought. But we still had blackberry and apple crumble, in season, thanks to last year's frozen crop! Lia – you make that ice-cream seem absolutely delicious.

I suspect that bearing the load for the last 2 years was beginning to tell, we all need a little proper me time at some point to re focus ourselves. Your ice cream sounds yummy - keep muttering about getting an ice cream maker, must mutter louder nearer my birthday!! Thats sounds like a wonderful way to spend Sunday morning.
