Australian bread, green tomatoes muffins and blackberry jam

   He stayed in bed while I baked. It made me feel good, especially because it turned out acceptable. My first trial hadn't been so good. The day before I had also made some specials muffins. Our last green tomatoes were waiting to be used before it was too late. Food from Southern US inspired me.  Green tomatoes muffins with a twist of whisky.

And we also had that fabulous jam that Jakob made last week after having gathered blackberries.
